Long intergenic non-protein coding RNA 645 (LINC00645)

Target
LINC00645
Molecular classification
Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA), Intergenic lncRNA, Competitive endogenous RNA (ceRNA)
01

Overview

Long intergenic non-protein coding RNA 645 (LINC00645) is a long non-coding RNA expressed from chromosome 14, significantly upregulated in malignant gliomas and endometrial cancers. It acts as an oncogene, promoting cell proliferation, migration, invasion, epithelial–mesenchymal transition, and maintenance of tumor stemness mainly through the miR-205-3p/ZEB1 axis. High levels are associated with poor prognosis and adverse tumor characteristics, making it a potential therapeutic target and biomarker in cancer management.

02

Mechanism of action

Competes with miR-205-3p, functioning as a ceRNA, leading to increased ZEB1 expression and promoting EMT in glioma cells. Upregulation is correlated with enhanced tumor migration, invasion, and proliferation

03

Biological functions

Regulation of epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT)Cell proliferationCell migration and invasionMaintenance of stemness and self-renewal in tumor stem cellsRegulation of gene expression via interaction with miRNAs
04

Disease associations

Cancer (Glioma/Glioblastoma, Endometrial cancer)Potential biomarker for poor prognosis in glioma
05

Safety considerations

Therapeutic targeting may risk effects on normal regulatory pathways of RNA metabolism and stem cell maintenance, but detailed safety profiles are unknown due to the lack of clinical targeting approaches
