    Abstract:
    BACKGROUND: LncRNA TONSL-AS1 has been characterized as a critical player in gastric cancer. By analyze the TCGA dataset, we observed the upregulation of TONSL-AS1 in ovarian epithelial carcinoma (EOC). We therefore investigated the involvement of TONSL-AS1 in EOC. METHODS: The differential expression of TONSL-AS1 in EOC was first explored by analyzing the TCGA dataset. The effects of overexpression of TONSL-AS1 and miR-490-3p on the expression of CDK1 mRNA and protein in OVCAR3 cells were evaluated by qPCR and western blot, respectively. CCK-8 assay was performed to investigate the effects of overexpression of TONSL-AS1, miR-490-3p and CDK1 on proliferation of OVCAR3 cells. RESULTS: We observed that TONSL-AS1 was upregulated in EOC tumor tissues from EOC patients, and its high expression level was correlated with poor survival. Dual luciferase assay and RNA interaction prediction showed the direct interaction between TONSL-AS1 and miR-490-3p. However, overexpression of miR-490-3p did not affect the expression of TONSL-AS1. Instead, overexpression of TONSL-AS1 resulted in the upregulation of CDK1, a target of miR-490-3p, in EOC cells. Overexpression of TONSL-AS1 and CDK1 resulted in increased proliferation rate of EOC cells. Overexpression of miR-490-3p played an opposite role and reduced the effects of overexpression of TONSL -AS1 and CDK1. CONCLUSIONS: Therefore, TONSL-AS1 may regulate miR-490-3p/CDK1 to affect EOC cell proliferation.
