LncRNA-HOST2 regulates cell biological behaviors in epithelial ovarian cancer through a mechanism involving microRNA let-7b

Abstract: Recently, a large number of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been reported in mammalian genomes and are evolutionarily conserved and presumably function in many biological events, especially in the pathogenesis of diverse human cancers. A lncRNA, named HOST2 (human ovarian cancer-specific transcript 2), was once reported to specifically be expressed at high level in human ovarian cancer. However, how HOST2 acts to regulate gene functions in ovarian carcinogenesis has remained enigmatic. Here we report, for … Show more

“…Furthermore, it is up-regulated in all four major subtypes of ovarian cancer compared to cultivated ovarian surface epithelial cells [44] . In addition, HOST2 has been reported to enhance tumor cell migration, invasion, and proliferation in epithelial ovarian cancer, possibly by the inhibition of miRNA let-7b tumor suppressor functions [21] .…”

“…These lncRNAs are involved in various biological processes of ovarian cancer, including chemotherapy, proliferation, apoptosis and metastasis (21)(22)(23)(24). Previous studies have suggested the potential role of lncRNAs in ovarian cancer to a certain extent (15)(16)(17)(18)(19)(20)(21)(22)(23)(24), however, further investigation is required to explain their respective functions and mechanisms of action.…”

“…For example, Gao et al demonstrated that the lncRNA human ovarian cancer-specific transcript 2 promotes tumor cell migration, invasion and proliferation in epithelial ovarian cancer by modulating microRNA let-7b availability (21). lncRNA H19 expression was inhibited by histone H1.3, which contributes to the suppression of epithelial ovarian carcinogenesis (22).…”
