ACSL4 and prostate cancer: To study the potential molecular mechanism of NEAT1 in prostate cancer, bioinformatics predictions and experiments proved that miR-34a-5p and miR-204-5p are potential targets of NEAT1 and are inhibited by NEAT1. Next, the downstream targets of miR-34a-5p and miR-204-5p were predicted and verified to be ACSL4. miR-34a-5p and miR-204-5p can inhibit the expression of ACSL4 by targeting the 3'-UTR of ACSL4 and then reduce the ability of prostate cancer cells to be resistant to docetaxel.
