The 5-year survival rate of lung cancer is one of the lowest among various malignant tumors.Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs),noncoding RNAs longer than 200 nucleotides,can function either as tumor suppressors or as oncogenes.The aim of this study is to investigate the function of lncRNA LINC01296 and its molecular mechanism in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC).Accord-ing to the Gene Expression Omnibus database,10 differentially expressed lncRNAs in NSCLC cells and patient tissues are upregulated.LINC01296 is the one with the most significant over-expression.Knockdown of LINC01296 inhibits the growth and migration,arrests the cell cycle,and promotes the apoptosis of NSCLC cells.Knocking down LINC01296 in vivo suppresses tumor growth and metastasis.LINC01296 also acts as the sponge of miR-143-3p.Lowering the expres-sion of LINC01296 leads to decreased expression of autophagy-related 2B (ATG2B),a target gene of miR-143-3p.Moreover,downregulation of LINC01296 promotes paclitaxel sensitivity in NSCLC.These results demonstrated that the LINC01296/miR-143-3p/ATG2B axis is crucial in promoting the development of NSCLC and paclitaxel resistance.Our study may provide new ideas for the further research of clinical chemotherapy of NSCLC in the near future.
