Dysregulation of long non-coding RNAs occurring in the preliminary stages of breast carcinogenesis is poorly understood. In this study, RNA sequencing was done to identify long non-coding RNA expression profiles associated with early-stage breast cancer.RNA sequencing was done in 6 invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC) tissues along with paired normal tissue samples, 7 ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) tissues and 5 apparently normal breast tissues. We identified 375 differentially expressed lncRNAs (DElncRNAs) in IDC tissues compared to paired normal tissues. Antisense transcripts (~58%) were the largest subtype among DElncRNAs. About 20% of the 375 DElncRNAs were supported by typical split readings leveraging their detection confidence. Validation was done in n=52 IDC and paired normal tissue by qRT-PCR for the identified targets (ADAMTS9-AS2, EPB41L4A-AS1, WDFY3-AS2, RP11-295M3.4, RP11-161M6.2, RP11-490M8.1, CTB-92J24.3 and FAM83H-AS)1. We evaluated the prognostic significance of DElncRNAs based on TCGA datasets and overexpression of FAM83H-AS1 was associated with patient poor survival. We confirmed that the down-regulation of ADAMTS9-AS2 in breast cancer was due to promoter hypermethylation through in-vitro silencing experiments and pyrosequencing.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
