function description | NEAT1 levels were significantly increased in human breast cancer cells including MCF-7, MDA-MB-453, MDA-MB-231, and SKBR3 cells compared to normal mammary epithelial cells MCF-10A while miR-448 was decreased. We found that downregulation of NEAT1 was able to inhibit the growth of breast cancer cells and miR-448 mimic exerted the similar function. Bioinformatics analysis and dual luciferase reporter assays confirmed the negative correlation between NEAT1 and miR-448 in vitro. It was speculated in our study that NEAT1 can serve as a competing endogenous lncRNA (ceRNA) to modulate ZEB1 by sponging miR-448 in breast cancer. |
