   Cancer Name colorectal cancer
   ICD-0-3 C19.9  
   Methods qPCR, Western blot, RIP, Luciferase reporter assay etc.
   Sample primary CRC tissues, cell lines (HEK-293T, HCT8, HCT116, HT29, LoVo)
   Expression Pattern up-regulated
   Function Description

We found that UCA1 was up-regulated in CRCs and negatively correlated with survival time in two CRC cohorts. Functional assays revealed the in vitro and in vivo growth-promoting function of UCA1 and revealed that UCA1 can decrease the sensitivity of CRC cells to 5-FU by attenuating apoptosis. Further mechanistic studies revealed that UCA1 could sponge endogenous miR-204-5p and inhibit its activity. We also identified CREB1 as a new target of miR-204-5p. The protein levels of CREB1 were significantly up-regulated in CRCs, negatively associated with survival time and positively correlated with the UCA1 expression.
