Abstract:Objective To explore the molecular mechanism of the competitive binding of LncRNA-CASC2 to miR-193a-5p in regulating GSDMD focal death pathway to reverse cisplatin resistance in non-small cell lung cancer. Methods Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cell line A549 was selected to establish a drug-resistant strain A549/DDP, and the sensitivity of the cell to cisplatin was detected by CCK8 to verify whether the drug-resistant cell line was successfully established. The expression of CASC2 in A549 and A549/DDP cells and its effect on the expression of GSDMD2 and miR-193a-5p were detected by PCR. The binding sites of LncRNA-CASC2 and miR-193a-5p, miR-193a-5p and GSDMD were predicted by bioinformatics software. The target relationship between CASC2 and miR-193a-5p and miR-193a-5p and GSDMD was analyzed by luciferase reporter gene, and the competitive binding of LncRNA-CASC2 to miR-193a-5p was detected by Western blot. Results The semi-inhibitory concentration of A549/DDP cells was more than 10 times that of A549 cells, indicating that the drug-resistant cell line A549/DDP had been successfully constructed. The expression level of CASC2 in A549/DDP was lower than that in A549 (P<0.05). CASC2 mimics inhibited the expression of miR-193a-5p in cells, while GSDMD expression was up-regulated (P<0.05). There was a significant targeting relationship between CASC2 and miR- 193a-5p, and between miR-193a-5p and GSDMD (P<0.05). Conclusion The low expression of LncRNA-CASC2 and miR-193a-5p in NSCLC cells and the high expression of GSDMD are closely related to the chemotherapy resistance of NSCLC. The interaction of LncRNA-CASC2 and miR-193a-5p regulates GSDMD and promotes the drug resistance of tumor cells.
