   Sample HCC tissues, cell lines (BEL-7402, SK-Hep1, Huh7, MHCC-97H)
   Expression Pattern up-regulated
   Function Description

Levels of the lincRNA-UFC1 were increased in HCC tissues compared with controls, and associated with tumor size, Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer stage, and patient outcomes. Transgenic expression of the lincRNA-UFC1 in HCC cells promoted their proliferation and cell-cycle progression and inhibited apoptosis, whereas short hairpin RNA knockdown of lincRNA-UFC1 had opposite effetcs.The lincRNA-UFC1 interacted directly with the messenger RNA (mRNA) stabilizing protein HuR (encoded by ELAVL1) to increase levels of B-catenin mRNA (encoded by CTNNB1) and protein. In contrast, there was a negative correlation between levels of microRNA 34a and lincRNA-UFC1 in HCC tissues microRNA 34a reduced the stability of lincRNA-UFC1.
