Functional description
OBJECTIVE: Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) expression is closely related to the pathogenesis and progression of various tumors. In this study, we investigated the mechanisms of lncRNA HOXB cluster antisense RNA 3 (HOXB-AS3), miRNA(miR)-498-5p, and disintegrin and metalloproteinase domain-containing protein 9 (ADAM9) in endometrial carcinoma (EC) cells. METHODS: The expression levels of lncRNA HOXB-AS3 in EC tissues and cells were detected using RT-qPCR assays. The effects of HOXB-AS3 knockdown on EC cell proliferation and apoptosis were measured using CCK-8 assays, colony formation assays, and flow cytometry. In addition, putative miR-498-5p binding sites were identified in HOXB-AS3 and ADAM9. The targeted relationships were further verified using dual-luciferase reporter and RNA pull-down assays. RESULTS: HOXB-AS3 expression was upregulated in EC tissues and cells. EC cell proliferation and viability decreased significantly in HOXB-AS3 knockdown groups. A putative miR-498-5p binding site in HOXB-AS3 was verified. Inhibition of miR-498-5p rescued the effects of HOXB-AS3 knockdown on cell proliferation and apoptosis. Finally, ADAM9 was verified as a direct target gene of miR-498-5p. CONCLUSIONS: Our results suggest that lncRNA HOXB-AS3 is highly expressed in EC tissues and cells. Downregulation of HOXB-AS3 inhibits cell proliferation and promotes apoptosis in EC cells. HOXB-AS3 can upregulate ADAM9 expression by sponging miR-498-5p.
