Arsenic, an environmental pollution with diverse toxicities, incurs public health problems. Arsenic trioxide could inhibit cell proliferation in vitro experiments, but the underlying mechanisms are not fully known. LncRNAs are also involved in the arsenic-induced toxicological responses. In our study, we found that the expression of lncRNA DICER1-AS1 was significantly inhibited by sodium arsenite in a dose-dependent manner. DICER1-AS1 silencing decreased the A549 cell proliferation and inhibited cell cycle progression. Importantly, DICER1-AS1 silencing induced upregulation of p21 and downregulation of Cyclin A2, Cyclin E2, CDK1 and PCNA. In conclusion, our study provided a new lncRNA-dictated regulatory mechanism participating in arsenic-induced inhibition of cell proliferation.
