Popis: To evaluate the expression of lincRNA-p21, H19, EMX2OS, SNHG12 and MALAT1 in a mouse model of human papillomavirus 16 (HPV16)-induced carcinogenesis and cachexia.Chest skin, ear, tongue, penis and gastrocnemius muscle samples from wild-type mice (HPV-) and K14-HPV16 male mice (HPV+) were collected to evaluate the expression of the selected lncRNAs using real-time PCR (qPCR).In chest skin and ear, H19, SNHG12, EMX2OS and lincRNA-p21 were down-regulated in HPV+ versus HPV- mice. In tongue and penile tissues, there was only down-regulation of lincRNA-p21 in HPV+ mice. Additionally, in penile tissue, lincRNA-p21 expression decreased in HPV-induced lesions comparing with normal tissues. In gastrocnemius muscle, MALAT1 was up-regulated and lincRNA-p21 was down-regulated in HPV+ versus HPV-mice.H19, SNHG12, EMX2OS and lincRNA-p21 may be involved in HPV-induced carcinogenesis. In addition, MALAT1 and lincRNA-p21 may play a role in muscle wasting and contribute to cancer cachexia.
