| Sample | cell line (Het-1A,EC109, KYSE150, KYSE450), FFPE tissue |
| Expression Pattern | up-regulated |
| Function Description | CASC9 preferentially affected gene expression linked to ECM-integrin interactions, including LAMC2, an upstream inducer of the integrin pathway. CASC9 and LAMC2 depletion reduced the phosphorylation of FAK, PI3K, and Akt, which are downstream effectors of the integrin pathway. Moreover, the reduction in phosphorylation caused by CASC9 depletion was rescued by LAMC2 overexpression, further confirming that CASC9 exerts a pro-metastatic role through LAMC2.CASC9 could bind with the transcriptional coactivator CREB-binding protein (CBP) in the nucleus.CASC9 increased the enrichment of CBP and H3K27 acetylation in the LAMC2 promoter, thereby upregulating LAMC2 expression. |
