Among malignant tumors, lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is the leading cause of death worldwide. This study explored the diagnostic, prognostic value, and preliminary functional verification of sialic acid binding Ig like lectin 17, pseudogene (SIGLEC17P) in LUAD. Prognostic lncRNAs for LUAD were identified by The Cancer Genome Atlas and quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) was used to detect the expression of SIGLEC17P in LUAD and paracarcinoma tissues. Subsequently, lentiviral vectors were used to overexpress SIGLEC17P in A549 and H1299 cells. The effects of SIGLEC17P overexpression on the proliferation, migration, and invasiveness of LUAD cells (A549 and H1299) were evaluated by Cell Counting Kit-8, wound healing, and transwell migration assays, respectively. Bioinformatics analyses were performed to reveal the potential pathways in which SIGLEC17P is involved in LUAD. qRT-PCR results revealed low SIGLEC17P expression in LUAD tissues and a significant association with the N stage, T stage, and tumor node metastasis stage. Furthermore, the receiver operating characteristic curve demonstrated a reliable diagnostic value. The proliferation, migration, and invasion of LUAD cells were inhibited by overexpression of SIGLEC17P. Bioinformatics analyses suggested that SIGLEC17P might exert antioncogenic effects in LUAD through the mir-20-3p/ADH1B or mir-4476-5p/DPYSL axis. In summary, our results revealed that SIGLEC17P acts as a prognostic biomarker, independent prognostic factor, and potential therapeutic target for patients with LUAD. |
