Expression levels of candidate lncRNAs were determined by qRT-PCR using the PrimeScript RT Master Mix (perfect Real Time) reagent kit (Takara Bio Inc. Dalian, P.R. China). All reactions were carried out according to the manufacturer's instructions. Briefly, 500 ng total RNA was reverse-transcribed with 5 × PrimeScript RT Master Mix (perfect Real Time). The reverse-transcription reaction was performed according the manufacturer's recommendations (37°C for 15 min, 85°C for 5 s and incubated at 4°C). The expression levels of the lncRNAs were determined with qRT-PCR using the PrimeScript RT Master Mix (perfect Real Time) reagent kit (RR036A, Takara Bio Inc. Dalian, P.R. China) and the ABI 7500 real-time PCR system (Applied Biosystems). The conditions for the reactions were those recommended by the manufacturer (95°C for 30 s, followed by 40 cycles at 95°C for 5 s and 60°C for 30 s). The cycle threshold (Ct) values were calculated with the SDS 2.0.5 software (Applied Biosystems). The average expression levels of the lncRNAs were normalized to the average for GAPDH using the 2−ΔΔCt method. All qRT-PCR experiments were performed at least three times in triplicate. The primers used for qRT-PCR are listed in Supplementary Table S1.

Total RNA was extracted from the cultured cells and tissues using TRIzol (Invitrogen; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.) according to the manufacturer's protocols. RNA concentrations were measured using a NanoDrop1000 spectrophotometer (NanoDrop Technologies). RNA integrity was assessed by gel electrophoresis. To detect the expression levels of miR-216a-5p, the miR-216a-5p-specific primers (RiboBio) were used for the reverse transcription of the total RNA. To detect the expression levels of KIAA0101, total RNA (1 µg each sample) was used to synthesize cDNA using the PrimeScript® RT Master Mix Perfect Real-Time Reagent Kit (Takara Bio Inc.). Quantitative reverse transcription PCR (RT-qPCR) for miR-216a-5p and KIAA0101 was performed using a standard protocol based on the SYBR Green PCR kit (Toyobo) on an iQ5 system (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Inc.). The relative expression of miR-216a-5p was normalized against U6, while that of KIAA0101 was normalized to β-actin, both using the 2−ΔΔCq method (20 (link)). When comparing the ΔCq between tumor and normal tissue, 2−ΔCq was used. When normal cells or tissue were used as references, 2−ΔΔCq was compared. The 2−ΔΔCq of normal tissue was 1. Each sample was run in triplicates, and the experiment was repeated at least twice.
