Abstract
Background: Prostate cancer is an adverse tumor that occurs in the male reproductive system. The symptoms of patients in the early stage are not obvious and are generally difficult to detect.
Aim: The aim of this study was to determine the regulation of lncRNA GABPB1-AS1 (GABPB1-AS1) on prostate cancer progression and explore the diagnostic potential of GABPB1-AS1.
Methods: The contents of serum GABPB1-AS1 and miR-330-3p were examined by RT-qPCR assay. The functions of silencing GABPB1-AS1 and miR-330-3p inhibitor in prostate cancer cells were determined using transfection assay, CCK-8 assay and Transwell assay. The target of GABPB1-AS1 was predicted and verified at the molecular level by bioinformatics and luciferase reporter gene assay. The function of GABPB1-AS1 in prostate cancer diagnosis was evaluated via ROC method.
Results: GABPB1-AS1 was upregulated in prostate cancer serum, which was associated with patients' Gleason score and TNM stage. Mechanistically, GABPB1-AS1 directly targeted miR-330-3p, and there was a negative correlation between them. Reduced levels of GABPB1-AS1 in cells after knockdown of GABPB1-AS1 resulted in decreased prostate cancer cell growth and activity, and these inhibitory effects were repaired by miR-330-3p inhibitor.
Conclusion: The present study confirmed that GABPB1-AS1 was overexpressed in prostate cancer, and its sponge miR-330-3p may be an effective target for timely diagnosis of prostate cancer.
