| Long noncoding RNA LINC01186, regulated by TGF-beta/SMAD3, inhibits migration and invasion through Epithelial-Mesenchymal-Transition in lung cancer. | Accumulating evidence suggests that long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are crucial regulators of the epithelial-mesenchymal-transition (EMT). TGF-beta signaling is a major inducer of EMT and can facilitate lung cancer metastasis. However, the role of lncRNAs in this process remains largely unknown. Here, we have identified 291 lncRNAs which were differentially expressed in lung cancer tissues compared with adjacent normal tissues. Of these, the gene body or vicinity of 19 transcripts were also bound by SMAD3. The expression of LINC01186 was significantly decreased in A549 cells treated with TGF-beta1. Furthermore, LINC01186 was stably down-regulated in lung cancer tissues compared with normal tissues in TCGA data sets and another published lung cancer data sets. The bioinformatics analysis suggested that LINC01186 was associated with TGF-beta and might participate in EMT process. Moreover, knocking-down LINC01186 promoted cell migration and invasion, whereas, LINC01186 overexpression prevented cell metastasis. Importantly, LINC01186 expression was regulated by SMAD3. And LINC01186 affected several EMT markers expression. These findings suggest that LINC01186, a mediator of TGF-beta signaling, can play a significant role in the regulation of EMT and lung cancer cell migration and invasion.CI - Copyright (c) 2017 Elsevier B.V.
