The noncoding RNA LINC00152 conveys contradicting effects in different glioblastoma cells
Abstract Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is an extremely aggressive brain tumor, characterized by its high genetic heterogeneity. In search of novel putative therapeutic RNA targets we investigated the role of the oncogenic long noncoding RNA LINC00152 (CYTOR, and STAiR18) in A172 glioblastoma cells....

| Sumario: | Abstract Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is an extremely aggressive brain tumor, characterized by its high genetic heterogeneity. In search of novel putative therapeutic RNA targets we investigated the role of the oncogenic long noncoding RNA LINC00152 (CYTOR, and STAiR18) in A172 glioblastoma cells. Here, we are the first to describe, that LINC00152 unexpectedly acts in a tumor suppressive manner in this cell line. SiRNA-based knockdown of LINC00152 enhanced malignant tumor behaviors including proliferation, cell cycle entry, migration, and invasion, contradicting previous studies using U87-MG and LN229 glioblastoma cells. Furthermore, LINC00152 knockdown had no influence on survival of A172 glioblastoma cells. In a genome wide transcription analysis of A172 and U87-MG glioblastoma cells, we identified 70 LINC00152 target genes involved in locomotion, cell migration, and motility in A172 cells, whereas in U87-MG cells only 40 target genes were detected. The LINC00152-regulated genes found in A172 differed from those identified in U87-MG glioblastoma cells, none of them being regulated in both cell lines. These findings underline the strong genetic heterogeneity of glioblastoma and point to a potential, yet unknown risk addressing LINC00152 lncRNA as a prospective therapeutic target in GBM. |
