BACKGROUND: Non-coding RNAs play a critical role in the occurrence and development of oral cancer. The present study is aimed to identify long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) that might be novel effective targets for the treatments of oral cancer and the underlying mechanism. METHODS: The microarray profiling and RNA-sequencing analysis were performed to identify lncRNAs related to oral cancer development, and lncRNA DNM3OS was selected. DNM3OS knockdown was generated in cancer cell lines, and the specific effects of DNM3OS knockdown on cell phenotype were examined. DNM3OS targeted miRNA and miRNA targeted downstream mRNA were selected, the predicted bindings were verified, and the specific effects of miRNA on oral cancer cells were examined. Finally, the dynamic effects of DNM3OS and miRNA on target mRNA expression and oral cancer cell phenotype were examined. RESULTS: DNM3OS was upregulated in oral cancer tissues and cells. DNM3OS knockdown in CAL27 and SCC-9 cells inhibited cell viability and migration. DNM3OS targeted miR-204-5p to inhibit miR-204-5p expression. miR-204-5p overexpression suppressed oral cancer cell aggressiveness. miR-204-5p targeted HIP1 to inhibit HIP1 expression. HIP1 knockdown inhibited oral cancer cell viability and migration. The effects of DNM3OS knockdown were significantly reversed by miR-204-5p inhibition. Within oral carcinoma tissue samples, expression of DNM3OS and HIP1 was increased whereas the miR-204-5p expression was downregulated; miR-204-5p had...
