Invasive mucinous adenocarcinoma of the lung (IMA), a mucinous variant of lung adenocarcinoma, is strongly linked with a worse prognosis. Therefore, a deeper understanding about its molecular mechanism may conduce to a promising IMA therapy. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have recently caught great attention for their crucial roles in diverse diseases regarding tumor initiation and progression. However, the potential role of the lncRNA HOXC-AS3 IMA is not well established. Hence, the purpose of present study is to manifest HOXC-AS3-regulated inner mechanism in IMA development. It revealed that HOXC-AS3 was highly expressed in IMA cells. Additionally, it was identified that the significant down-regulation of HOXC-AS3 obstructed cell proliferation and migration in IMA. As far as mechanism is concerned, it found that HOXC-AS3 recruited FUS to stabilize FOXM1 mRNA, accelerating IMA progression. Taken together, these data suggested that HOXC-AS3 may be recognized as a novel therapeutic target for patients with IMA or at least offer new views for molecular therapy. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
