Background : The lnc-SNHG16 serves as an oncogene and miR-128 acts as a tumor suppressor in various cancers. However, the functional role of lnc-SNHG16 and miR-128 in CC still remain unknown. This study aims to explore the expression level of lnc-SNHG16 and miR-128 and its biological roles in CC. Methods : lnc-SNHG16, miR-128, GSPT1 and WNT3A expression were analyzed using quantitative real-time PCR and bioinformatics in cervical cancer tissues and cells. Cell Counting Kit-8, EdU staining, colony formation assay, western blot, Transwell, immunofluorescence, immunohistochemical staining, luciferase reporter assay, electrophoretic mobility shift, tumor xenograft, and flow cytometry assays were employed to investigate the mechanisms underlying the effect of Lnc-SNHG16/miR-128 axis on cervical cancer. Results : lnc-SNHG16 was up-regulated in CC cell lines and tissues. lnc-SNHG16 knockdown inhibited proliferation, restrained the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) process by regulating cell apoptosis and cell cycle. The next study indicated that lnc-SNHG16 knockdown markedly increased miR-128 level which is down-regulated in CC. Moreover, miR-128 overexpression significantly inhibited proliferation, EMT process and tumor growth by directly targeting GSPT1 and WNT3A. Finally, lnc-SNHG16 activates but miR-128 inactivates the WNT/β-catenin pathways in CC cells. Conclusion : Our data suggest that lnc-SNHG16/miR-128 axis modulates malignant phenotype of CC cells through WNT/β-catenin pathway.
