Aberrantly Expressed lncRNA LINC00847 May Serve as a Promising Prognostic Factor for Thyroid Cancer
Horm Metab Res DOI: 10.1055/a-2111-3821Thyroid cancer is a tumor that occurs in the head and neck, which originates from
the thyroid follicular epithelial cells. The current research is discussed and
elaborated from the perspective of molecular prognostic biomarkers to gain a
deeper understanding of the molecular mechanism of thyroid cancer and to provide
more effective treatment and prognostic methods for patients. Thyroid cancer
patients were explored from histological, cellular and clinical levels.
Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) was used to detect
the expression of LINC00847 and miR-146b-5p in the tissues and cells of the
subjects. Cell growth and thyroid cancer progression were determined by the cell
counting kit-8 (CCK-8) and transwell assays. The LINC00847 sponge miR-146b-5p
was assessed by bioinformatics tools and luciferase reporter assay, and the
Kaplan–Meier method and multivariate Cox regression analysis suggested
the prognostic value of high expression of LINC00847. In thyroid cancer tissues
and cells, the expression of LINC00847 was decreased. Overexpression of
LINC00847 remarkably inhibited the proliferation level, migration ability and
invasion ability of thyroid cancer cells. Besides, miR-146b-5p was upregulated
in thyroid cancer tissues and cells. It was confirmed that LIN...
