The long non-coding RNA LSINCT5 promotes malignancy in non-small cell lung cancer by stabilizing HMGA2

ABSTRACT Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) can actively participate in tumorigenesis in various cancers. However, the involvement of lncRNA long stress induced non-coding transcripts 5 (LSINCT5) in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remains largely unknown. Here we showed a novel lncRNA signature in NSCLC through lncRNA profiling. Increased LSINCT5 expression positively correlates with malignant clinicopathological features and poor survival. LSINCT5 can promote migration and viability of various NSCLC cells in vitro and also enhance lung cancer progression in vivo. RNA immunoprecipitation followed by mass spectrometry has identified that LSINCT5 interacts with HMGA2. This physical interaction can increase the stability of HMGA2 by inhibiting proteasome-mediated degradation. Therefore, LSINCT5 may possibly contribute to NSCLC tumorigenesis by stabilizing the oncogenic factor of HMGA2. This novel LSINCT5/HMGA2 axis can modulate lung cancer progression and might be a promising target for pharmacological intervention.
