   Methylation
   Cancer Name hepatocellular carcinoma
   ICD-0-3 C22.0  M8170/3
   Methods qPCR, RNAi, Western blot etc.
   Sample HCC tissues, cell lines (Huh-6, Huh-7, HepG2, BEL-7402, MHCC-97H, Sk-Hep1, SMMC-7721 etc.)
   Expression Pattern up-regulated
   Function Description

We found that HULC was aberrantly up-regulated in HCC tissues and associated with TNM stage, intrahepatic metastases, HCC recurrence, and postoperative survival. HULC depletion inhibited the growth and metastasis of HCC cell lines in vitro and in vivo. Moreover, HULC contributes to ZEB1-induced epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), a requirement for tumor invasion and metastasis that plays a key role in cancer progression.
