    IntroductionRecent studies have shown that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are involved in a variety of biological processes and diseases in humans, including cancer. However, the exact effects and molecular mechanisms of TP73-AS1 in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) progression are still unknown. The present study is aimed to reveal the detailed functions and the mechanism of TP73-AS1 in the regulation of NSCLC cell proliferation.Material And MethodsTP73-AS1 expression in NSCLC tissues and cell lines was determined using real-time PCR assays. The functions of TP73-AS1 in the regulation of NSCLC cell proliferation was evaluated using BrdU assays. The interaction between TP73-AS1 and miR-141-3p was confirmed using luciferase report gene assays.ResultsTP73-AS1 was upregulated in NSCLC tissues and cell lines. However, when knockdown of TP73-AS1 inhibited the NSCLC proliferation. By using online tools, we screened out miR-141-3p may combined with TP73-AS1. With use of luciferase assays, we confirmed that miR-141-3p could directly bind to TP73-AS1. In NSCLC tissues, miR-141-3p was down-regulated; TP73-AS1 was inversely correlated with miR-141-3p.ConclusionsOur data suggest that TP73-AS1 might be an oncogenic lncRNA that promotes proliferation of NSCLC and might be regarded as a therapeutic target in NSCLC.Copyright: © 2019 Termedia & Banach.
