Over-expression of long noncoding RNA HOTAIRM1 promotes cell proliferation and invasion in human glioblastoma by up-regulating SP1 via sponging miR-137

Glioblastoma is the most aggressive malignant brain tumor in adults. Long noncoding RNA HOTAIRM1 (HOX antisense intergenic RNA myeloid 1) has been reported to participate in the progression of various cancers. However, the role of HOTAIRM1 in glioblastoma and its underlying mechanisms are largely unknown. The relative expression levels of HOTAIRM1, miR-137 and specificity protein 1 were detected by quantitative real-time PCR or western blot. The effects of HOTAIRM1 on cell proliferation and invasion were evaluated by Cell Counting Kit-8 assay and Transwell assay, respectively. The interactions among HOTAIRM1, miR-137 and specificity protein 1 were predicted by online softwares and confirmed by luciferase reporter assay and RNA immunoprecipitation assay. The levels of HOTAIRM1 and specificity protein 1 were significantly increased while miR-137 was significantly decreased in glioblastoma tissues and cells. Knockdown of HOTAIRM1 suppressed proliferation and invasion in glioblastoma cells. Moreover, miR-137 was bound to HOTAIRM1, and specificity protein 1 was identified as a target of miR-137. The protein level of specificity protein 1 was repressed by silencing the expression of HOTAIRM1, whereas the effect was restored by inhibiting the expression of miR-137. Downregulation of HOTAIRM1 expression suppressed the proliferation and invasion of glioblastoma cells by down-regulating specificity protein 1 expression via sponging miR-137, indicating a promising strategy for glioblastoma treatment.
