Title Downregulation of Lnc-OC1 attenuates the pathogenesis of polycystic ovary syndrome.
Journal Mol Cell Endocrinol
Abstract Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play a vital role in the progression of many human diseases. The aim of this study is to explore the relationship between lncRNA-ovarian cancer associated 1 (Lnc-OC1) and PCOS. In this study, we found that Lnc-OC1 was significantly higher in PCOS granulosa cells (GCs) compared to non-PCOS GCs. Lnc-OC1 knockdown inhibited cell viability and promoted cell apoptosis, expression of aromatase mRNA and production of estradiol in KGN cells. In PCOS mice, Lnc-OC1 promoted the serum insulin release, production of angiogenesis-related factors and IκBα phosphorylation, which could be partially restored by Lnc-OC1 shRNA. These results suggest that Lnc-OC1 plays an important part in the pathogenesis of PCOS.
