Cancer&Entry Information
| Cancer Name | epithelial ovarian cancer |
| ICD-0-3 | C56.9 |
| Methods | qPCR, Luciferase reporter assay, in vitro knockdown |
| Sample | An immortal normal human ovarian epithelial cell line, HS832.Tc, and seven human EOC cell lines, SK-OV-3, CAOV-3, CAOV-4, OVCAR-3, HEY-T30, ES-2, and SW/626, EOC tumor samples and paired adjacent non-tumor samples |
| Expression Pattern | up-regulated |
| Function Description | NORAD was substantially upregulated in both EOC cell lines and human tumors. In OVCAR-3 and ES-2 cells, lentivirus-mediated NORAD downregulation had significant anticancer effects, as it suppressed cell proliferation, decreased bufalin chemoresistance, arrested cell-cycle transition, and inhibited xenograft growth. Also, hsa-miR-155-5p was confirmed to be the competing target of NORAD in EOC, and its knockdown in OVCAR-3 and ES-2 cells reversed the NORAD downregulation-induced anticancer functions |

| Title | Long noncoding RNA NORAD is upregulated in epithelial ovarian cancer and its downregulation suppressed cancer cell functions by competing with miR-155-5p |
