PG - e10085 LID - 10.1016/j.heliyon.2022.e10085 [doi] LID - e10085 AB - Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are important players in laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC). However, the function of the long noncoding RNA small nucleolar RNA host gene 20 (SNHG20) in LSCC is hardly known. We therefore analyzed the role of this lncRNA in LSCC. Our data showed that SNHG20 was significantly overexpressed in LSCC cell lines and human LSCC tissue. SNHG20 significantly promoted cell proliferation, migration and invasion of LSCC cells. The actions of SNHG20 are likely mediated by miR-342-3p expression, which results in increased expression of MTDH. Finally, the results of in vivo models confirmed that SNHG20 promotes LSCC progression through modulating miR-342-3p and MTDH expression. Taken together, our study demonstrates that SNHG20/miR-342-3p/MTDH axis participates in LSCC progression. CI - (c) 2022 The Author(s).
