Cancer&Entry Information
| Cancer Name | pancreatic cancer |
| ICD-0-3 | C25 |
| Methods | qPCR, Western blot, etc. |
| Sample | pancreatic cancer tissues, pancreatic cancer cell line Panc-1 |
| Expression Pattern | up-regulated |
| Function Description | qRT-PCRwas conducted tomeasure the expression of HULC and miR-15a in pancreatic tissues and cells. Cell transfection was used to change the expression of HULC and miR-15a in pancreatic cancer Panc-1 cells. The viability, migration and invasion and apoptosis of Panc-1 cells after relevant transfection were detected using CCK-8 assay, two chamber transwell assay and Guava Nexin assay, respectively. Results found that HULC had a higher expression level, whilemiR-15a had a lower expression level in pancreatic cancer tissues. Overexpression of HULC promoted the proliferation, migration and invasion of Panc-1 cells. Suppression of HULC had opposite effects and dramatically induced cell apoptosis. Moreover, HULC negatively regulated the expression of miR-15a in Panc-1 cells. miR-15a participated in the effects of HULC on Panc-1 cells. Furthermore, overexpression of HULC activated PI3K/AKT pathway in Panc-1 cells by down-regulatingmiR-15a. In conclusion, HULC exerted oncogenic role in pancreatic cancer. Overexpression of HULC promoted the proliferation,migration and invasion of pancreatic cancer cells by down-regulatingmiR-15a and then activating PI3K/AKT pathway. |
