   Sample NSCLC tissues, cell lines (A549, SPC-A1 and H1703)
   Expression Pattern up-regulated
   Function Description

In this study, we found that the expression of LUCAT1 was significantly up-regulated in NSCLC tissues compared to non-tumor tissues, and its expression was associated with tumor size, tumor-node-metastasis (TNM) stage and overall survival (OS). Further experiments showed that LUCAT1 knockdown inhibited cell proliferation both in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistic investigations showed that LUCAT1 plays a key role in G0/G1 arrest. We further demonstrated that LUCAT1 was associated with polycomb repressor complexes (PRC2) and that this association was required for epigenetically repression of p21 and p57, thus contributing to the regulation of NSCLC cell cycle and proliferation.
