   Prognostic
   MiRNA
   Variant
   TF
   Methylation
   Cancer Name colorectal cancer
   ICD-0-3 C19.9  
   Methods qPCR, RNAi etc.
   Sample CRC tissues, cell lines (HCT116 and SW480)
   Expression Pattern up-regulated
   Function Description

In this study, we found that AFAP1-AS1 was aberrantly over-expressed in CRC tissues and closely correlated with tumor size, TNM stage and distant metastasis. Moreover, AFAP1-AS1 depletion resulted in the inhibition of CRC cell proliferation and colony formation. In addition, AFAP1-AS1 knockdown induced G0/G1 cell cycle arrest in CRC cells.

   Pubmed ID 27261589
   Year 2016
   Title Overexpression of lncRNA AFAP1-AS1 correlates with poor prognosis and promotes tumorigenesis in colorectal cancer.
