Popis: Long intergenic noncoding RNA 00511 (LINC00511) predicts poor prognosis in various malignancies and functions as an oncogene in distinct malignant tumors. The role of LINC00511 in melanoma progression was assessed. In our research, expression of LINC00511 in melanoma cells was detected by quantitative reverse transcription PCR. Colony formation and CCK8 assays were used to detect cell proliferation. Cell metastasis was evaluated by transwell and wound healing assays. Downstream target of LINC00511 was investigated by luciferase activity assay. As a results, LINC00511 was elevated in melanoma cells and tissues. Loss of LINC00511 decreased cell viability, reduced proliferation, invasion, and migration of melanoma. miR-610 was target of LINC00511, and miR-610 binds to 3′UTR of nucleobindin-2 (NUCB2). Inhibition of miR-610 attenuated LINC00511 deficiency-induced decrease of NUCB2 in melanoma cells. Loss of miR-610 weakened LINC00511 deficiency-induced decrease of cell viability, proliferation, invasion, and migration of melanoma. In conclusion, silence of LINC00511 reduced cell proliferation and metastasis of melanoma through down-regulation of miR-610-mediated NUCB2.
