To analyze the effect of ursolic acid on the expressions of long chain non coding RNA(lncRNA)-LINC01089 and its targetgenes in papillary thyroid carcinoma(PTC).
LINC01089 was a differentially expressed lncRNA that was previously screened and verified by transcriptome sequencing in the early stage. TPC-1 cells and normal human thyroid cells(Nthy-ori3-1)were routinely cultured in vitro and were divided into normal human thyroid cell group,control group and UA groups(10,20,40 μmol·L-1). The survival rate of TPC-1 cells in each group was detected by CCK-8 assays. Scratch and Transwell experiments were conducted to investigate the effects of different concentrations of ursolic acid on the horizontal,vertical migration and invasion of TPC-1 cells. RT qPCRmethod was used to detect the relative expression level of LINC01089 in TPC-1 cells and the intervention effect of ursolic acid. RT-qPCR and Western blot were used to detect the mRNA and protein expression levels of target genes Ras Homolog Family Member F(RHOF)and 4-Hydroxyphenylpyruvate Dioxygenase(HPD)as well as the intervention effectof ursolic acid.
Different concentrations of UA(10,20,40 and 80 μmol·L-1)could inhibit the proliferation of TPC-1 cells for different periods of time(12~48 hours). When the concentration of ursolic acid was 10~40 μmol·L-1,the inhibitory effect of the cells gradually increased with increasing of concentration and prolongation of action time within 12 and 24 hours(P<0.05). After treating TPC-1 cells with ursolic acid for 24 hours,the cell proliferation was slow,and as the concentration of ursolic acid(10,20 and 40 μmol·L-1)increased,morphological changed in cell apoptosis. Compared with the control group,the ursolic acid(10,20,40 μmol·L-1)groups inhibited the migration and invasion of TPC-1 cells in a significant concentration dependent manner(P<0.01). Ursolic acid can up-regulate the expression of LINC01089,and down-regulate themRNA and protein expression levels of RHOF and HPD.
Ursolic acid has a certain inhibitory effect on thyroid papillary carcinoma cells,and its mechanism may be related with the LINC01089 and its target gene RHOF.
