Background  Breast cancer (BC) is one of the malignant solid tumors with the highest morbidity in the world. Currently, the therapeutic outcome of different types of treatment can be unsatisfactory. Novel lncRNA biomarkers in BC remains to be further explored.    Methods  Different expression of lncRNAs among BC tissues and adjacent normal tissues were identified with microarray analyses. A series of in vivo and in vitro gain-of-function laboratory procedures were conducted to study the biological functions of IGBP1-AS1. The prognostic effects on IGBP1-AS1 survival were evaluated by using in situ hybridization and survival analysis. In addition, other experiments including RNA pull down analysis, RNA immunoprecipitation, luciferase reporter assays, and chromatin immunoprecipitation as well as validating assays conducted in vivo were applied to identify the target and regulatory mechanisms of IGBP1-AS1.    Results  Significant down-regulation of IGBP1-AS1 was discovered in the cell lines and tissues of BC. With respect to its biological function, overexpression of IGBP1-AS1 had inhibitory effects on the invasion and proliferation of BC cells in vivo as well as in vitro. Analysis of the samples obtained from BC patients indicated a positive effect of IGBP1-AS1 on survival outcomes. LncRNA IGBP1-AS1/miR-24-1/ZIC3 axis as a loop can regulate the proliferation and invasion of BC cells.    Conclusions  IGBP1-AS1 could have inhibitory impact on the invasion and proliferation of BC and may serve as a promising biomarker for BC.
