چکیده
Abstract. – OBJECTIVE: Emerging evidence suggest that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) may play important roles in human cancers. The aim of this study was to investigate the expression of SBF2-AS1 in non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and its correlation with clinicopathological features and prognosis in NSCLC. PATIENTS AND METHODS: The expression of lncRNA SBF2-AS1 was measured in 174 NSCLC samples and their matched non-tumor tissues by using RT-PCR. Association of SBF2-AS1 expression with clinicopathological features was analyzed in NSCLC. Kaplan–Meier analysis was performed to evaluate the overall survival of NSCLC patients. RESULTS: The expression of SBF2-AS1 was higher in NSCLC tissues compared with adjacent non-tumor tissues (p < 0.01). Additionally, high expression level of SBF2-AS1 was significantly associated with NSCLC histological grade, and lymph node metastasis. Further¬more, a higher SBF2-AS1 expression was demonstrated to be associated with poor overall survival times in NSCLC patients (p < 0.001). Multivariate analysis suggested that SBF2-AS1 expression was an independent prognostic factor for overall survival of patients with NSCLC (p = 0.013). CONCLUSIONS: Our data suggest that SBF2AS1 could represent a novel prognostic marker and potential therapeutic target in patients with NSCLC.

High expression of long non-coding RNA SBF2-AS1 promotes proliferation in non-small cell lung cancer
BACKGROUND Recent evidence has proven that long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) play important roles in cancer biology, while few lncRNAs have been characterized in NSCLC. Here, we characterized a novel lncRNA, SBF2 antisense RNA 1 (SBF2-AS1), in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). METHODS Quantitative real-time PCR was used to quantify SBF2-AS1 expression in NSCLC tissues and cell lines. The correl...

BACKGROUND The relationships between lncRNAs and tumors have currently become one of the focuses on cancer studies. However, there are a few studies about lncRNAs in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) at present. METHODS Microarray analysis was designed to study the expression patterns of lncRNAs in three pairs of NSCLC tissues. The expression of lncRNA RGMB-AS1 and repulsive guidance molecul...

Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is one of the most common malignancies worldwide, and it occurs at a higher frequency in males. HOXD-AS1, an important cancer-associated long noncoding RNA (lncRNA), contributes to the development and progression of several cancers. However, the exact roles of HOXD-AS1 in NSCLC progression are still unknown. Here, we investigated the underlying mechanisms of H...

Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most aggressive primary intracranial tumor of adults and confers a poor prognosis due to high vascularization. Hence anti-angiogenic therapy has become a promising strategy for GBM treatment. In this study, the transcription factor nuclear factor of activated T-cells 5 (NFAT5) was significantly elevated in glioma samples and GBM cell lines, and positively correlated wi...
