Abstract:
Spontaneous tumor regression can be observed in many tumors, however, studies related to the altered expression of lncRNA in spontaneous glioma regression are limited, and the potential contributions of lncRNAs to spontaneous glioma regression remain unknown. To investigate the biological roles of lncRNA-135528 in spontaneous glioma regression. The cDNA fragment of lncRNA-135528 was obtained by rapid-amplification of cDNA ends (RACE) technology and cloned into the plvx-mcmv-zsgreen-puro vector. Additionally, we stably silenced or overexpressed lncRNA-135528 in G422 cells by transfecting with siRNA against lncRNA-135528 or lncRNA-135528 overexpression plasmid. Then, we examined lncRNA-135528 overexpressing and lncRNA-135528 silencing on glioma cells and its effects on CXCL10 and JAK/STAT pathways. The main findings indicated that lncRNA-135528 promoted glioma cell apoptosis, inhibited cell proliferation and arrested cell cycle progression; the up-regulation of lncRNA135528 led to significantly increased CXCL10 levels and the differential expression of mRNA associated with JAK/STAT pathway in glioma cells. lncRNA-135528 can inhibit tumor progression by up-regulating CXCL10 through the JAK/STAT pathway.
Insights
Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA)-135528 promotes glioma cell apoptosis and inhibits proliferation. Upregulating lncRNA-135528 enhances CXCL10 levels via the JAK/STAT pathway, inhibiting tumor growth.
Area of Science:
- Oncology
- Molecular Biology
- Genetics
Background:
- Spontaneous tumor regression occurs in various cancers, but the role of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in spontaneous glioma regression is understudied.
- The specific functions and mechanisms of lncRNAs in glioma regression remain largely unknown.
Purpose of the Study:
- To investigate the biological roles of lncRNA-135528 in spontaneous glioma regression.
- To elucidate the potential involvement of lncRNA-135528 in regulating glioma cell behavior and associated signaling pathways.
Main Methods:
- Obtained lncRNA-135528 cDNA using rapid-amplification of cDNA ends (RACE) technology.
- Generated G422 glioma cells with stable lncRNA-135528 overexpression or silencing using lentiviral vectors and siRNA.
- Assessed the effects of lncRNA-135528 manipulation on cell apoptosis, proliferation, cell cycle, CXCL10 expression, and JAK/STAT pathway components.
Main Results:
- lncRNA-135528 overexpression promoted glioma cell apoptosis, inhibited proliferation, and arrested cell cycle progression.
- Upregulation of lncRNA-135528 significantly increased CXCL10 levels in glioma cells.
- lncRNA-135528 altered the expression of messenger RNAs (mRNAs) associated with the JAK/STAT signaling pathway.
Conclusions:
- lncRNA-135528 plays a crucial role in inhibiting glioma progression.
- The tumor-inhibitory effect of lncRNA-135528 is mediated by upregulating CXCL10 through the JAK/STAT pathway.

Tumor Progression
Colon cancer is one of the best-documented examples of tumor progression. Early mutation in the APC gene in colon cells causes a small growth on the colon wall called a polyp. With time, this polyp grows into a benign, pre-cancerous tumor. Further...
