Neuroblastoma is an important problem in children. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) exhibit important roles in tumorigenicity of neuroblastoma. However, the role and mechanism of lncRNA small nucleolar RNA host gene 16 (SNHG16) in neuroblastoma tumorigenicity remain poorly understood. Forty-six neuroblastoma samples and 28 normal tissues were harvested. The levels of SNHG16, microRNA-15b-5p (miR-15b-5p), and phosphoribosyl pyrophosphate synthetase 1 (PRPS1) were detected via quantitative reverse transcription PCR or western blot. Cell proliferation as well as cycle distribution were measured via 3-(4, 5-Dimethyl-2-thiazolyl)-2, 5-diphenyl-2-H-tetrazolium bromide or flow cytometry. Cell metastasis was investigated via epithelial-mesenchymal transition or transwell assay. The target relationship of miR-15b-5p and SNHG16 or PRPS1 was explored via starBase and dual-luciferase reporter assay. The role of SNHG16 in neuroblastoma in vivo was analyzed using a xenograft model. We found SNHG16 and PRPS1 levels were increased in neuroblastoma tissues and cells. SNHG16 knockdown inhibited cell proliferation, increased the cell cycle distribution at G0/G1 phase, and decreased the cells at S phase. SNHG16 overexpression caused an opposite effect. SNHG16 silence suppressed neuroblastoma cell metastasis. PRPS1 knockdown constrained cell proliferation and metastasis and regulated cell cycle distribution. miR-15b-5p was sponged by SNHG16 and directly targeted PRPS1. miR-15b-5p knockdown or PRPS1 overexpression mitigated the influence of SNHG16 silence on cell cycle, proliferation, and metastasis. SNHG16 knockdown reduced xenograft tumor growth. In conclusion, SNHG16 downregulation suppressed neuroblastoma tumorigenicity by regulating cell cycle, proliferation, and metastasis via miR-15b-5p/PRPS1 axis. |
