    Abstract:
    AIMS: This study aimed to investigate the effect of long non-coding RNA-plasmacytoma variant translocation 1 (lnc-Pvt1) knockdown on regulating cell proliferation and apoptosis, and to explore its molecular mechanism in multiple myeloma (MM). METHODS: Lnc-Pvt1 expression was detected in MM cell lines (NCI-H929, U-266, LP-1 and RPMI-8226 cell lines) and human normal plasma cells. In U-266 cells and LP-1 cells, control shRNA and lnc-Pvt1 shRNA plasmids were transferred. Rescue experiments were further performed by transfection of lnc-Pvt1 shRNA alone and lnc-Pvt1 shRNA and miR-486 shRNA plasmids. Cells proliferation, apoptosis, RNA expression, and protein expression were determined by cell counting kit-8, annexin V-FITC-propidium iodide, quantitative polymerase chain reaction, and Western blot assays, respectively. RESULTS: Lnc-Pvt1 expression was increased in MM cell lines (NCI-H929, U-266 and LP-1 cell lines) compared with human normal plasma cells. In U-266 cells, lnc-Pvt1 shRNA suppressed cell proliferation while enhanced cell apoptosis compared with control shRNA. Also, lnc-Pvt1 shRNA increased miR-486 expression compared with control shRNA. Further rescue experiment revealed that miR-486 shRNA did not change lnc-Pvt1 level, but increased CDK4 and BCAS2 expressions in lnc-Pvt1 knockdown-treated cells. In addition, miR-486 shRNA promoted cell proliferation while inhibited cell apoptosis in lnc-Pvt1 knockdown-treated cells. These results were further validated in LP-1 cells. CONCLUSIONS: Lnc-Pvt1 knockdown inhibits cell proliferation and induces cell apoptosis through potentially regulating miR-486-mediated CDK4 and BCAS2 in MM.
