   Methylation
   Cancer Name bladder cancer
   ICD-0-3 C67  
   Methods qPCR, RNAi, Western blot etc.
   Sample bladder cancer cell lines
   Expression Pattern up-regulated
   Function Description

In this study, we show that lncRNA UCA1 promotes glycolysis in bladder cancer cells, and that UCA1-induced hexokinase 2 (HK2) functions as an important mediator in this process. We further show that UCA1 activates mTOR to regulate HK2 through both activation of STAT3 and repression of microRNA143.

   Title Long non-coding RNA UCA1 promotes glycolysis by upregulating hexokinase 2 through the mTOR-STAT3/microRNA143 pathway.
