   Prognostic
   MiRNA
   Variant
   TF
   Methylation
   Cancer Name prostate cancer
   ICD-0-3 C61.9  
   Methods qPCR, Southern blot etc.
   Sample prostate cancer tissues, cell lines (DU145, LNCaP, PC-3, and 22Rv1)
   Expression Pattern up-regulated
   Function Description

The promoter of this single-copy gene is strongly methylated in normal male cells, including leukocytes and normal prostate. In prostate cancer tissues and particularly in cell lines, partial hypomethylation was observed paralleling that of LINE-1 sequences. Weak XIST expression was found in normal prostate tissues, but none in leukocytes. Only slight increases in expression of this gene were found in cancer tissues and cell lines.
