PWRN1 was overexpressed by lentiviral infection in LN-229 and U-251 cells to evaluate its effect on GBM cell proliferation and migration in vitro, and xenograft in vivo. The endogenously competing target of PWRN1, human microRNA-21-5p (hsa-miR-21-5p) was evaluated by dual-luciferase activity assay and qRT-PCR. Also, hsa-miR-21-5p was upregulated in PWRN1-overexpressed GBM cells to evaluate the functional involvement of hsa-miR-21-5p in PWRN1-mediated GBM cell proliferation and migration.Results: PWRN1 was downregulated in both human GBM tumors and GBM cell lines. In LN-229 and U-251, PWRN1 overexpression suppressed cancer cell proliferation and migration in vitro, and xenograft growth in vivo. Hsa-miR-21-5p was demonstrated to be the downstream competing target of PWRN1 in GBM. Conversely, upregulating hsa-miR-21-5p in LN-229 and U-251 cells reversed the tumor-suppressing effects of PWRN1 overexpression.Conclusion: PWRN1 is markedly downregulated in GBM. Overexpressing PWRN1 has tumor inhibitory effect on GBM cells, likely via reversely suppressing the expression of tumor oncogenic factor of hsa-miR-21-5p.Keywords: GBM, lncRNAs, PWRN1, microRNA, hsa-miR-21-5p, migration
