Popis: Numerous studies indicated that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play critical roles in glioma initiation and progression. SNHG25 is a newly identified lncRNA. And the functional role and molecular mechanism of SNHG25 in glioma cells have not been investigated. In this study, we found that SNHG25 was upregulated in glioma cells and tissues. CCK-8, EDU, and colony formation assays demonstrated that SNHG25 knockdown markedly inhibited glioma cell proliferation. In vivo studies showed that SNHG25 knockdown significantly inhibited tumor growth. Further studies indicated that SNHG25 positively regulated MAP2K2 through sponging miR-579-5p. High expression of SNHG25 activated MAPK signaling through MAP2K2. These data suggest that SNHG25 is a potential target and biomarker for glioma.
