Abstract Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been acknowledged as important regulators in various human cancers.
lncRNA MNX1-AS1 has been shown to be an oncogene in epithelial ovarian cancer. However, the function of MNX1-AS1 in glioblastoma (GBM) remains largely unknown. Here we found that the expression of
MNX1-AS1 was significantly upregulated in GBM tissues and cell lines. Knockdown of MNX1-AS1 significantly inhibited the proliferation, migration, and invasion of GBM cells. In terms of mechanism, we found that
MNX1-AS1 could bind to miR-4443 in GBM cells. Overexpression of miR-4443 significantly inhibited the
expression of MNX1-AS1 and vice versa. More >
