    Abstract:
    Pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PAAD) has been a huge challenge to public health due to its increasing incidence, frequent early metastasis, and poor outcome. The molecular basis of tumorigenesis and metastasis in PAAD is largely unclear. Here, we identified a novel tumor-suppressor long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) MBNL1-AS1, in PAAD and revealed its downstream mechanism. Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) data showed that MBNL1-AS1 expression was significantly downregulated in PAAD tissues and cells, which was closely associated with metastasis and poor prognosis. Cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) assay, transwell assay, and western blot verified that overexpression of MBNL1-AS1 suppressed cell proliferation, migration, and epithelial mesenchymal transformation (EMT) behavior in PAAD cells. By using a dual luciferase reporter gene system, we confirmed that miR-301b-3p was a direct target of MBNL1-AS1. Further mechanismic study revealed that upregulation of miR-301b-3p abolished the inhibitory effect of MBNL1-AS1 overexpression on cell proliferation, tumorigenesis, migration and EMT. Our results demonstrate that MBNL1-AS1 plays a tumor-suppressive role in PAAD mainly by downregulating miR-301b-3p, providing a novel therapeutic target for PAAD.
