   Cancer Name acute myeloid leukemia
   ICD-0-3  M9861/3
   Methods RNA-seq, qPCR, RIP, in vitro knockdown etc.
   Sample cell lines (K562, CEBPA, CEBPA-P30, K562etc.)
   Expression Pattern up-regulated
   Function Description

In this study, we identified the oncogenic urothelial carcinoma associated 1 (UCA1) lncRNA as a novel target of the C/EBPa-p30. While wild-type C/EBPa represses, C/EBPa-p30 can induce UCA1 transcription. Notably, we also show that UCA1 expression increases in cytogenetically normal AML cases carrying biallelic CEBPA mutations.Thus, we identified, for the first time, an oncogenic lncRNA functioning in concert with the dominant negative isoform of C/EBPa-p30 in AML.
