The lncRNA TRG-AS1 and its co-expressed gene P2RY10 are important for colorectal cancer (CRC) occurrence and development. The purpose of our research was to explore the roles of TRG-AS1 and P2RY10 in CRC progression. The abundance of TRG-AS1 and P2RY10 in CRC cell lines (HT-29 and LoVo) and normal colon cells FHC was determined and difference between CRC cells and normal cells was compared. LoVo cells were transfected with si-TRG-AS1 and si-P2RY10 constructs. Subsequently, the viability, colony formation, and migration of the transfected cells were analyzed using cell counting kit-8, clonogenicity, and scratch-wound/Transwell® assays, respectively. Cells overexpressing GNA13 were used to further explore the relationship between TRG-AS1 and P2RY10 along with their downstream functions. Finally, nude mice were injected with different transfected cell types to observe tumor formation in vivo. TRG-AS1 and P2RY10 were significantly upregulated in HT-29 and LoVo compared to FHC cells. TRG-AS1 knockdown and P2RY10 silencing suppressed the viability, colony formation, and migration of LoVo cells. TRG-AS1 knockdown downregulated the expression of P2RY10, GNA12, and GNA13, while P2RY10 silencing downregulated the expression of TRG-AS1, GNA12, and GNA13. Additionally, GNA13 overexpression reversed the cell growth and gene expression changes in LoVo cells induced by TRG-AS1 knockdown or P2RY10 silencing. In vivo experiments revealed that CRC tumor growth was suppressed by TRG-AS1 knockdown and P2RY10 silencing. TRG-AS1 knockdown repressed the growth of HT-29 and LoVo by regulating P2RY10 and GNA13 expression. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
