As an endocrine and metabolic disorder, polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is common in females at childbearing age. Our work was intended to uncover the underlying role of LINC00173 its potential regulatory mechanism PCOS based on two cell lines (PCOS granulosa cells KGN cells) vivo model established from Sprague Dawley rats. It revealed that JAG1 expressions were upregulated, while miR-124-3p poorly expressed patients Functional assays showed overexpression repressed proliferation stimulated apoptosis cells, downregulation exhibited opposite effects. Besides, it verified upregulated expression via competitively binding miR-124-3p. Similarly, abundance inversely related level PCOS. Subsequently, rescue elucidated upregulation or eliminated effects mediated by knockdown. In addition, found adversely modulated positively LINC00173. Moreover, further demonstrated reduced vitality increased induced overexpressing could be relieved deletion. These findings suggested a latent regulating factor for progression modulating miR-124-3p/JAG1 cascade.
