This study aimed to investigate the effect and mechanism of long non-coding RNA FLVCR1-AS1 on proliferation, invasion and migration of colorectal cancer. QRT-PCR was used to detect the expression of FLVCR1-AS1 in colorectal cancer. The target genes of FLVCR1-AS1 were predicted using
the StarBase and Luciferase assay. The biological function of miR-493-3p through a series of in vitro experiments. We examined the expression of FLVCR1-AS1 in colorectal cancer cell lines was remarkably increased. Interference with FLVCR1-AS1 inhibits proliferation, invasion and migration
of colorectal cancer cell lines. MiR-493-3p is a targeted miRNA of lncRNA FLVCR1-AS1, and overexpression of miR-493-3p inhibits proliferation of colorectal cancer cells, invasion and migration of colorectal cancer cells, and it can be reversed by lncRNA FLVCR1-AS1. LncRNA FLVCR1-AS1 acts as
miR-493-3p sponge to modulate cancer cell proliferation, invasion and migration in colorectal cancer.
High expression of long non-coding RNA ZEB1-AS1 promotes colorectal cancer cell proliferation partially by suppressing p15 expression
