Abstract
Laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC) is one of the most aggressive cancers that affect the head and neck region. Recent researches have confirmed that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) present an emerging role in diversiform diseases including cancers. Prostate cancer-associated ncRNA transcript 6 (PCAT6) is an oncogene in lung cancer, cervical cancer, colon cancer and gastric cancer, but its role in LSCC is still unknown. In the current study, we attempted to figure out the role of PCAT6 in LSCC. RT-qPCR was to analyze PCAT6 expression in LSCC cells. Functional assays were to uncover the role of PCAT6 in LSCC. Mechanism assays were to explore the regulatory mechanism behind PCAT6 in LSCC. PCAT6 exhibited higher expression in LSCC cells and PCAT6 strengthened cell proliferation and inhibited cell apoptosis. Furthermore, lncRNA PCAT6 modulated notch receptor 3 expression and activated NOTCH signaling pathway via serving as a sponge for miR-4731-5p. Taken together, lncRNA PCAT6 was identified as an oncogene in LSCC, which revealed that PCAT6 might be used as potential therapeutic target for LSCC.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Radiation Research (JRR) is an official journal of The Japanese Radiation Research Society (JRRS), and the Japanese Society for Radiation Oncology (JASTRO).
Since its launch in 1960 as the official journal of the JRRS, the journal has published scientific articles in radiation science in biology, chemistry, physics, epidemiology, and environmental sciences. JRR broadened its scope to include oncology in 2009, when JASTRO partnered with the JRRS to publish the journal.
Articles considered fall into two broad categories:
Oncology & Medicine - including all aspects of research with patients that impacts on the treatment of cancer using radiation. Papers which cover related radiation therapies, radiation dosimetry, and those describing the basis for treatment methods including techniques, are also welcomed. Clinical case reports are not acceptable.
Radiation Research - basic science studies of radiation effects on livings in the area of physics, chemistry, biology, epidemiology and environmental sciences.
Please be advised that JRR does not accept any papers of pure physics or chemistry.
The journal is bimonthly, and is edited and published by the JRR Editorial Committee.
