Abstract Growth arrest-specific transcript 5 (GAS5) has been demonstrated to correlate with clinicopathological characteristics and serve as a tumor suppressor in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, the underlying mechanism of the competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) regulatory network involving GAS5 in NSCLC
remains to be elucidated. In this study, qRT-PCR results showed that GAS5 was downregulated and miR-135b
was upregulated in NSCLC tissues and cells. The expressions of GAS5 and miR-135b changed inversely
in response to irradiation. Gain-of-function experiments revealed that GAS5 overexpression and miR-135b
downregulation significantly suppressed tumorigenesis by repressing cell proliferation and invasion, and More >
