   Cancer Name pancreatic cancer
   ICD-0-3 C25  
   Methods qPCR, RNAi, Western blot, RIP, Flow cytometry assay, Cell proliferation assay etc.
   Sample pancreatic cancer tissues, cell lines (CFPAC-1, SW1990, AsPC-1)
   Expression Pattern up-regulated
   Function Description

And knockdown of MALAT-1 upregulated E-cadherin mRNA expression in pancreatic cancer cell lines. Therefore, we hypothesized that EZH2 might be recruited by MALAT-1 to synergistically repress E-cadherin. To test this hypothesis, we first asked whether MALAT-1 bound to EZH2 using a RNA Immunoprecipitation (RIP) assay. There was an average of 14- and 18- fold enrichment for MALAT-1 in the AsPC-1 and CFPAC-1 cells over-expressing EZH2, respectively, as compared to the IgG group. These results suggest that MALAT-1 is physically associated with the EZH2, and silencing EZH2 could increase E-cadherin transcription.

   Title EZH2 promotes cell migration and invasion but not alters cell proliferation by suppressing E-cadherin, partly through association with MALAT-1 in pancreatic cancer.
