Abstract

Background: Lung cancer accounts for a significant proportion of cancer-related deaths in China, with the majority of the cases being classified as non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The study aimed to investigate the expression of serum SNHG22 in patients with NSCLC, and its molecular mechanism and prognostic potential in NSCLC.

Methods: Admitted 125 NSCLC patients were selected for the study, along with 125 healthy individuals in the same period. The levels of SNHG22 and miR-128-3p were quantified via RT-qPCR. Correlations between the SNHG22 level and the pathological characteristics of the NSCLC patients were investigated through the application of the chi-square test. The targeting relationship between SNHG22 and miR-128-3p was predicted by online database and confirmed by luciferase activity. The prognostic ability of SNHG22 in NSCLC was assessed by Kaplan-Meier curves and multivariate Cox analysis.

Results: SNHG22 was upregulated in NSCLC and directly targeted miR-128-3p. The rate of overall survival is lower in patients with high-SNHG22 group compared to those with low-SNHG22 group. Silencing SNHG22 impaired the functionality of cells, which was restored by miR-128-3p inhibitor. SNHG22 stands as an independent predictor of poor prognosis in NSCLC patients.

Conclusion: The overexpression of SNHG22 in NSCLC is related to lymph node metastasis, TNM stage and patient survival, which is expected to be a prognostic predictor of NSCLC patients.
