Long Noncoding Rna Linc00857 Promotes Proliferation, Migration, And Invasion Of Colorectal Cancer Cell Through Mir-1306/Vimentin Axis

Colorectal cancer is a commonly diagnosed cancer and the leading cause of cancer-related death which still increasing in many countries. The lack of biomarkers for early detection and clinic treatment results in high morbidity and mortality. The novel role of long noncoding RNA LINC00857 on cell proliferation migration and invasion was explored in this article. The expression level of LINC00857 in colorectal cancer tissue samples and cells was determined notably higher than normal tissue samples and cells. Silence LINC00857 can significantly inhibit colorectal cancer cell viability and metastasis in vitro. Moreover, LINC00857 depletion caused cell accumulation in the G0/G1 phase. In addition, we recognized the novel LINC00857-miR-1306-vimentin axis and demonstrated it by dual-luciferase reporter assay. And this signaling axis could be considered as the target for colorectal cancer treatment. In conclusion, LINC00857 can promote colorectal cancer progress by sponging miR-1306 and upregulate vimentin to accelerate the epithelial-mesenchymal transition process.
