Abstract

A large number of pseudogenes as well as long non‑coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been identified as important regulators in human tumors. However, the clinical role and potential functional effects of the double homeobox A pseudogene 8 (DUXAP8) in glioma remains unknown. In the present study, it was revealed that pseudogene DUXAP8 is significantly upregulated in glioma tissues, compared with adjacent normal tissues. Patients with increased DUXAP8 expression were associated with higher Karnofsky Performance Status, advanced World Health Organization grade, poor disease‑free survival and overall survival rates of patients with glioma. Furthermore, in vitro assays, Cell‑Counting Kit‑8 cell viability and cell colony forming assays demonstrated that reduced DUXAP8 expression significantly suppressed proliferation capacity. Therefore, the results of the present study indicate that pseudogene DUXAP8 is an oncogenic lncRNA and may serve as a potentially prognostic biomarker and novel target of glioma treatment.
