Abstract
This study researched the function of long non-coding RNA LINC00365 in lung adenocarcinoma (LAD) progression. LINC00365, miR-429, and KCTD12 expression in the LAD clinical tissues and cells were detcetd by qRT-PCR and Western blot. LINC00365, miR-429, and KCTD12 effects on H1975 cells malignant phenotype were detected by cell counting kit-8 assay, clone formation experiment, Transwell experiment, and glycolysis. Dual luciferase reporter gene assay and RNA pull-down assay were implemented. LINC00365 effect on H1975 cells in vivo growth was detected. LINC00365 was low expressed in the LAD patients and cells, associating with poor outcome. LINC00365 up-regulation attenuated H1975 cells proliferation, migration, invasion, glycolysis and in vivo growth. LINC00365 inhibited KCTD12 expression by sponging miR-429. miR-429 up-regulation and KCTD12 down-regulation partial reversed LINC00365 inhibition on H1975 cells malignant phenotype. Thus, LINC00365 inhibited LAD progression and glycolysis via targeting miR-429/KCTD12 axis. LINC00365 might be a potential candidate for LAD target treatment clinically.
