Abstract Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is one of the most deadly cancers with poor prognosis. Recent findings
suggested that the lncRNA HOTAIR played an important role in tumorigenesis and metastasis. In the present study, HOTAIR was highly expressed in NSCLC tumor tissues and cell lines (H1299, H23, H292, and
A549). Downregulation of HOTAIR suppressed cell proliferation and invasion, while it promoted apoptosis
of NSCLC cells. The targeting relationship between HOTAIR and miR-613 was first revealed by bioinformatics prediction. miR-613 was found to be lowly expressed in NSCLC tumor tissues and cell lines. Knockdown
of HOTAIR… More >
