    Abstract:
    Glioma is the most common type of solid tumour affecting the central nervous system, and the survival rate of patients with glioma is low. However, the mechanism associated with glioma progression remains unclear. Growing evidence suggests that lncRNAs play essential roles in the initiation and progression of tumours, including gliomas. In the present study, we identified and verified the expression of the novel lncRNA RP11-279C4.1 by analyzing the TANRIC database and performing qRT-PCR assays, the results of which revealed its upregulation in glioma tissues and cell lines. The results of multiple functional experiments demonstrated that RP11-279C4.1 knockdown inhibited glioma malignant phenotypes, including cell proliferation, migration, invasion and cell self-renew ability in vitro. In addition, RP11-279C4.1 downregulation suppressed tumour growth in vivo. Mechanistically, RP11-279C4.1 induced CBX3 activation via competitively sponging miR-1273g-3p, and rescue assay results confirmed the importance of the RP11-279C4.1/miR-1273g-3p/CBX3 axis. Overall, the results of our present study demonstrated that RP11-279C4.1 functions as an oncogene that promotes tumour progression by modulating the miR-1273g-3p/CBX3 axis in glioma, suggesting that RP11-279C4.1 may be a novel therapeutic target for glioma.
