Abstract Neural invasion (NI) is a vital pathological characteristic of gastric cancer (GC), which correlates with tumor recurrence and a worse prognosis. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) play critical roles in various biological processes. However, the involvement of lncRNAs in NI of GC (GC-NI) remains unclear. DIAPH2-AS1 was upregulated in NI-positive GC tissues, which was confirmed by qRT-PCR. The higher expression of DIAPH2-AS1 predicted NI and worse survival for GC patients. Both in vitro and in vivo experiments, including wound-healing assay, Transwell assay, DRG-GC cells co-culture model, the mouse sciatic nerve model, and the lung metastasis model, indicated that DIAPH2-AS1 promoted the migration, invasion, and NI potential of GC cells. Mechanistically, pulldown assay and RNA immunoprecipitation assay revealed that DIAPH2-AS1 interacted with NSUN2. Subsequent experiments indicated that DIAPH2-AS1 stabilized NSUN2 from ubiquitin-proteasomal degradation via masking the K577 and K579 of NSUN2. The protection of DIAPH2-AS1 on NSUN2 improved the stability of NTN1 mRNA via m5C modification, which finally induced GC-NI. Our work uncovered DIAPH2-AS1 as a novel oncogenic lncRNA in GC-NI and validated the DIAPH2-AS1-NSUN2-NTN1 axis as a potential therapeutic target for NI-positive GC. |
