| Methods | qPCR, Flow cytometry assay, Cell proliferation assay etc. |
| Sample | CRC tissues, cell lines (CACO2, SW480, SW620, HCT-116, HT-29 etc.) |
| Expression Pattern | down-regulated |
| Function Description | In this study, CASC2 expression was significantly decreased in CRC tissues and CRC cell lines, and decreased expression was significantly more frequent in patients with advanced tumor-node-metastasis stage disease (TNM III and IV). Further functional experiments indicate that CASC2 could directly upregulate PIAS3 expression by functioning as a competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) for miR-18a. This interactions leads to the de-repression of genes downstream of STAT3 and consequentially inhibition of CRC cell proliferation and tumor growth in vitro and in vivo by extending the G0/G1-S phase transition. |
