Background: Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) OGFRP1 is up-regulated in endometrial cancer and cervical carcinoma, and OGFRP1 suppression inhibits the malignant behavior of cancer cells. Here, we evaluated the expression pattern, biological function and potential mechanism of OGFRP1 in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
Methods: The expression of target genes in 25 pairs of clinically collected NSCLC and normal lung tissue samples was detected by qRT-PCR or western blot. We screened the siRNA (siOGFRP1) to down-regulate the expression of OGFRP1 in A549 and H1299 cells. The biological function of A549 and H1299 cells were examined by CCK8, wound healing and transwell assays. The molecular mechanism of OGFRP1 was further explored.
Results: The expression of OGFRP1 in NSCLC tissues were higher than that in normal lung tissue. siOGFRP1 inhibited the proliferation, migration and invasion of A549 and H1299 cells. In addition, the expression of EMT-related and apoptosis-related proteins was changed by siOGFRP1 transfection. OGFRP1 can directly interact with miR-4640-5p, and siOGFRP1 increased the level of miR-4640-5p. Moreover, miR-4640-5p could directly bind to the 3' UTR region of eIF5A mRNA. eIF5A was highly expressed in NSCLC tissues, and predicted a poor prognosis. In addition, the expression of miR-4640-5p and eIF5A in NSCLC tissues were negatively correlated, while the expression of OGFRP1 and eIF5A were positively correlated. Knockdown of OGFRP1 inhibited the expression of eIF5A, while transfection of miR-4640-5p inhibitor up-regulated the expression of eIF5A.
Conclusions: Taken together, we demonstrated that down-regulation of OGFRP1 inhibited the progression of NSCLC through miR-4640-5p/eIF5A axis.

Background: Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is a common type of lung cancer and one of the leading causes of cancer death worldwide. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play a crucial role in tumors. The purpose of this study was to explore the expression of lncRNAs associated with RNA methylation modification and their prognostic value in LUAD.

Background: Ferroptosis-related genes play a crucial role in regulating intracellular iron homeostasis and lipid peroxidation, and they are involved in the regulation of tumor growth and drug resistance. The expression of ferroptosis-related genes in tumor tissues can be used to predict patients' future survival times, aiding doctors and patients in anticipating disease progression. Based on the sequencing data of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) patients from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database, this study identified genes involved in the regulation of ferroptosis, constructed a prognostic model, and evaluated the predictive performance of the model.

Background: RNA methylation modification is not only intimately interrelated with cancer development and progression but also actively influences immune cell infiltration in the tumor microenvironment (TME). RNA methylation modification genes influence the therapeutic progression of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), and mining RNA methylation modification prognosis-related markers in LUAD is crucial for its precise prognosis.
Methods: RNA-Seq data and Gene sets were collected from online databases or published literature.

Lung cancer is devastating cancer that ranks as the leading cause of cancer-related death. Long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) opioid growth factor receptor pseudogene 1 (OGFRP1) was recognized as an oncogene in many cancers. However, the molecular mechanism of OGFRP1 in lung cancer is still poorly understood.

Objective: To investigate the mechanism of lncRNA OGFRP1 affecting angiogenesis and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in colorectal cancer (CRC) and provide a new target for the treatment of CRC.
Methods: The expressions of OGFRP1, miR-423-5p, and CTCF were measured in CRC cell lines (HT29, LoVo, HCT116, SW620, and SW480) and normal colonic epithelial cells NCM460. Gain and loss of function experiments were performed on HCT116 and SW620 cells, after which the proliferation, apoptosis, EMT, invasion, and migration of the cells were measured using CCK-8 and colony formation assays, flow cytometry, Western blotting, Transwell, and scratch assay.
