Inhibition of aerobic glycolysis is a hopeful method for cancer treatment. In this study, we aimed to explore LINC00665/miR-214-3p/MAPK1 role in regulating cell viability and aerobic glycolysis in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The expressions of LINC00665 in 50 paired HCC tissues and normal tissues were determined by qRT-PCR. Pearson analysis was applied to evaluate the association between the expression levels of miR-214-3p, LINC00665, and MAPK1 in HCC tissues. The interactions between miR-214-3p and LINC00665 or MAPK1 were determined by luciferase reporter assay and RNA immunoprecipitation. CCK-8 and colony formation assays were used for cell viability evaluation. Lactate production, glucose consumption, and ATP levels were measured to assess Warburg effect. The results showed that LINC00665 was overexpressed in HCC, which positively associated with MAPK1 level and negatively associated with miR-214-3p level in HCC tissues. Overexpression of LINC00665 led to significant enhancements in cell viability and colony formation, whereas this effect was weakened when miR-214-3p was overexpressed or MAPK1 was downregulated. In addition, deletion of LINC00665 expression repressed tumor formation  in vivo . Mechanically, LINC00665 increased MAPK1 expression through binding to miR-214-3p. Collectively, this study revealed that LINC00665 accelerated cell growth and Warburg effect through sponging miR-214-3p to increase MAPK1 expression in HCC.
