Hypoxic microenvironment, a hallmark of solid tumors, contributes to chemoresistance, and long noncoding (lnc) RNAs are involved in hypoxia-induced drug resistance. However, the role of lncRNAs in hypoxic tumor chemotherapy resistance remains unclear. Here, we aimed to elucidate the effects of lncRNAs in hypoxia-mediated resistance in colorectal cancer (CRC), as well as the underlying mechanisms. The results indicated that the expression of lncRNA H19 was enhanced in hypoxia- or oxaliplatin-treated CRC cells; moreover, H19 contributed to drug resistance in CRC cells both in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistically, H19 was noted to act as a competitive endogenous RNA of miR-675-3p to regulate epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT). Notably, an miR-675-3p mimic could attenuate the effects of H19 deficiency in CRC cells with hypoxia-induced chemoresistance. In conclusion, H19 downregulation may counteract hypoxia-induced chemoresistance by sponging miR-675-3p to regulate EMT; as such, the H19/miR-675-3p axis might be a promising therapeutic target for drug resistance in CRC. |
