Long non-coding RNAs (LncRNAs) play essential roles in the development of various diseases including hepatic carcinoma, melanoma, and psoriasis. Meanwhile, lncRNA-RP6-65G23.1 was upregulated in psoriasis. However, it is still unclear whether lncRNA-RP6-65G23.1 expression is upregulated and contributes to keratinocytes proliferation and apoptosis, and which mechanisms are responsible for these processes. The aims of this study are to address these issues. RP6-65G23.1 was significantly upregulated in M5-stimulated keratinocytes and stimulated the proliferation and inhibited the apoptosis of HaCaT cells. Knockdown of RP6-65G23.1 resulted in defects of growth and increased rates of apoptosis in HaCaT cells, while overexpression of RP6-65G23.1 manifested the opposite effects. Consistently, the expression of antiapoptotic proteins Bcl-xl and Bcl2 were decreased in RP6-65G23.1-knockdown cells but elevated in RP6-65G23.1 overexpression cells. In addition, RP6-65G23.1 depletion blunted the activity of extracellular regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2) and AKT signaling pathways and induced G(1)/S-growth arrest. By contrast, overexpression of RP6-65G23.1 activates the ERK1/2 and AKT signaling pathways and inhibits the expression of p21 and p27 in an AKT-dependent manner leading to promote the G1/S progression. Our results suggested that lncRNA-RP6-65G23.1 would contribute to the pathogenesis of psoriasis by regulating the proliferation and apoptosis of keratinocytes via the p-ERK1/2 and p-AKT pathways.
