The long noncoding RNA XIAP-AS1 promotes XIAP transcription by XIAP-AS1 interacting with Sp1 in gastric cancer cells.
PloS One 2017
Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) play roles in the tumorigenesis, proliferation and metastasis of tumor cells. Previous studies indicate that the transcription factor Sp1 is responsible for transcription of the XIAP gene, but it is unknown whether lncRNAs are involved in XIAP transcription. Herein, we identified a novel lncRNA, denoted as XIAP-AS1, transcribed from the first intron of the complementary strand of the XIAP gene. Using RNA FISH, cell fractionation and qRT-PCR, XIAP-AS1 was determined to be located primarily in the nucleus. After various XIAP-AS1 deletion mutants were expressed, RIP assays showed that only the full-length XIAP-AS1 RNA interacted with Sp1 and thereby participated in XIAP transcription. ChIP assays showed that XIAP-AS1 knockdown decreased the binding of Sp1 to the promoter region of XIAP. XIAP-AS1 knockdown promoted tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL)-induced apoptosis in gastric tumor cells, as cleaved caspase-3 and caspase-9 was detected. Moreover, in an in vivo mouse xenograft model, tumor cell proliferation was inhibited by XIAP-AS1 knockdown in response to TRAIL administration. In conclusion, our results indicate that XIAP-AS1 is involved in XIAP transcription by interacting with Sp1. Additionally, XIAP-AS1 is a potential target for TRAIL-induced apoptosis in gastric cancer cells.
