RESUMEN
Purpose To investigate the influence of long chain non-coding RNA (lncRNA)-HOTAIR on endometrial cancer cell proliferation,invasion,metastasis and other biological behaviour.Methods 20 cases of endometrial carcinoma tissue specimen,20 cases of hyperplasia tissue sample and 10 cases of normal tissue specimen were collected.Difference expression of lncRNA-HOTAIR in normal endometrium,hyperplasia endometrium tissue and endometrial carcinoma tissue at all periods were detected with RT-PCR assay.HOTAIR-siRNA transfection into Ishikawa cells was utilized with Lipofectamine 2000.MTT experiment was used to detected the proliferation ability of cells in all groups.Transwell chamber experiment was used to test the migration and invasion ability of cells in all groups.Results The gene expression level of of lncRNA-HOTAIR in endometrial carcinoma group at all stages was prominently increased compared with normal endometrium group (P ＜ 0.05).The expression level of lncRNA-HOTAIR in simple hyperplasia endometrium group and atypical hyperplasia endometrial group was not significantly different (P ＞ 0.05).Cell proliferation,invasion ability and migration ability of HOTAIR-siRNA targeting suppression group were lower than the blank control group and the negative control group significantly (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion lncRNA-HOTAIR may involved in occurrence and development of endometrial cancer,which may play an important role in the aggression and metastasis of endometrial cancer.
