Cancer&Entry Information
| Cancer Name | colorectal cancer |
| ICD-0-3 | C19.9 |
| Methods | qPCR, RIP etc. |
| Sample | CRC tissues, cell lines (COLO320DM, HCT116, RKO, HEK293 etc.) |
| Expression Pattern | up-regulated |
| Function Description | Here, we report that CCAT2, a novel long noncoding RNA transcript (lncRNA) encompassing the rs6983267 SNP, is highly overexpressed in microsatellite-stable colorectal cancer and promotes tumor growth, metastasis, and chromosomal instability. Our results support a new mechanism of MYC and WNT regulation by the novel lncRNA CCAT2 in colorectal cancer pathogenesis, and provide an alternative explanation on the SNP-conferred cancer risk. |
