Cancer&Entry Information
| Cancer Name | pancreatic cancer |
| ICD-0-3 | C25 |
| Methods | qPCR, Western blot, Luciferase reporter assay, in vitro knockdown etc. |
| Sample | pancreatic carcinoma cell lines (PANC-1, SW1990, AsPC-1), pancreatic cancer tissues |
| Expression Pattern | up-regulated |
| Function Description | The colocalization relationship between lncRNA UCA1 and miR-96 was detected by RNA FISH. Whether UCA1 could target miR-96 and whether miR-96 could target FOXO3 3'UTR were verified by dual-luciferase reporter gene assay. High expression of lncRNA UCA1 and FOXO3 and low expression of miR-96 were shown in pancreatic cancer. Inhibition of UCA1 suppressed pancreatic tumor cell proliferation, colony formation, and metastasis, while inhibition of miR-96 promoted pancreatic cancer cell progression. FOXO3 was the downstream target gene of miR-96 and showed the opposite effects. LncRNA UCA1 promoted cell proliferation, invasion, migration and inhibited cell apoptosis of pancreatic cancer through down-regulating miR-96 and up-regulating FOXO3 |
