Then the clinic pathological significance of exosomal 91H was evaluated which demonstrated that CRC patients with high lncRNA 91H expression usually showed a higher risk in tumor recurrence and metastasis than patients with low lncRNA 91H expression (P < 0.05). 29410604 2018 Exosomal lncRNA 91H is associated with poor development in colorectal cancer by modifying HNRNPK expression. 91H NA NA NA NA NA osteosarcoma NA M9180/3 qPCR, Cell transfection, Flow cytometry assay, Cell proliferation assay etc. osteosarcoma tissues, cell lines (SAOS-2, U2OS, MG63, HOS, hFOB) up-regulated Herein, we confirmed that 91H expression was notably increased in osteosarcoma patients and cell lines compared to healthy controls and normal human bone cell lines. High expression of 91H was significantly correlated with advanced clinical stage, chemotherapy after surgery, and tumor size >5 cm. Additionally, the knockdown of 91H expression inhibited osteosarcoma cells' proliferation and promoted their apoptosis in vitro. 27555785 2016 Clinical implication of long noncoding RNA 91H expression profile in osteosarcoma patients.

Based on Gene Ontology and pathway analysis, we selected four differentially expressed lncRNAs (AC007271.3, AC007182.6, LOC283481, and RP11-893F2.9), and showed that aberrant AC007271.3 levels in OSCC patients were significantly associated with clinical stage, especially in early-stage disease, in an expanded case-control study. The combination of AC007271.3 and SCCA (AUC=0.902, p< 0.001) showed significantly better ability to discriminate between OSCC and controls compared with SCCA or AC007271.3 alone. Serum AC007271.3, SCCA, and TSGF levels could also discriminate between OSCC and normal controls with sensitivities of 77.6%, 55.0%, and 63.3%, and specificities of 84.5%, 93.3%, and 66.7%, respectively. These results suggest that AC007271.3, SCCA, and TSGF could be novel circulating biomarkers for the determination of OSCC. 29763905 2018 SCCA, TSGF, and the Long Non-Coding RNA AC007271.3 are Effective Biomarkers for Diagnosing Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma.

Remarkable down-regulation of BTG3 has been reported in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). In the present study, a number of single-stranded modified anti-sense DNA oligonucleotides (antago) were designed, synthesized and screened for specific lncRNA ASBEL knockdown. We showed here that anti-ASBEL antago played a significant tumor suppressive role in TNBC by effective down-regulation of lncRNA ASBEL, which in turn led to increased BTG3 expression.

Mechanistically, BORG elicits the metastatic outgrowth of latent breast cancer cells by promoting the localization and transcriptional repressive activity of TRIM28, which binds BORG and induces substantial alterations in carcinoma proliferation and survival. Moreover, inhibiting BORG expression in metastatic breast cancer cells impedes their metastatic colonization of the lungs of mice, implying that BORG acts as a novel driver of the genetic and epigenetic alterations that underlie the acquisition of metastatic and recurrent phenotypes by breast cancer cells. 28983112 2017 The lncRNA BORG Drives Breast Cancer Metastasis and Disease Recurrence CAHM CAHM, LINC00468 100526820 ENSG00000270419 NR_037593 GRCh38_6:163413065-163413960 colorectal cancer C19.9 NA qPCR, MSP-PCR etc. blood, CRC tissues down-regulated A reverse transcriptase-qPCR assay showed that CAHM RNA levels correlated negatively with CAHM % methylation, and therefore CAHM gene expression is typically decreased in CRC.

High expression of CCAT1 was correlated shorter overall survival of MM patients. CCAT1 knockdown significantly inhibited cell proliferation, induced cell cycle arrest at G0/G1 phase and promoted cell apoptosis in vitro, and suppressed tumor growth in vivo. MiR-181a-5p was a direct target of CCAT1, and repression of miR-181a-5p could rescue the inhibition of CCAT1 knockdown on MM progression. In addition,CCAT1 positively regulated HOXA1 expression through sponging miR-181a-5p in MM cells. lncRNA CCAT1 exerted an oncogenic role in MM by acting as a ceRNA of miR-181a-5p.

By receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) analysis, plasma CCAT1 provided the higher diagnostic performance for detection of CRC. Moreover, CCAT1 combining with HOTAIR could provide a more effective diagnosis performance. Most importantly, this combination was effective to detect CRC at an early stage (85%).

Knockdown of HOTTIP inhibited the cell proliferation migration and induced apoptosis in HCT-116 and SW620 cell lines. In addition, luciferase reporter assay suggested that knockdown of HOTTIP could target decreasing the expression of Serum- and glucocorticoid-inducible kinase 1 (SGK1) gene, and we subsequently verified that up-regulation of the SGK1 gene promoted cell proliferation and migration and inhibited cell apoptosis in HCT-116 and SW620 cell lines. 29274585 2017 Knockdown of the long non-coding RNA HOTTIP inhibits colorectal cancer cell proliferation and migration and induces apoptosis by targeting SGK1.

Knockdown of HOXD-AS1 inhibited the proliferation and chemo-resistance of CRPC cells in vitro and in vivo. Furthermore, we identified several cell cycle, chemo-resistance, and castration-resistance- related genes, including PLK1, AURKA, CDC25C, FOXM1, and UBE2C, that were activated transcriptionally by HOXD-AS1. Further investigation revealed that HOXD-AS1 recruited WDR5 to directly regulate the expression of target genes by mediating histone H3 lysine 4 tri-methylation (H3K4me3). In conclusion, our finndings indicate that HOXD-AS1 promotes proliferation, castration resistance, and chemo-resistance in prostate cancer by recruiting WDR5. This sheds a new insight into the regulation of CRPC by lncRNA and provides a poten-tial approach for the treatment of CRPC. 28487115 2017 lncRNA HOXD-AS1 Regulates Proliferation and Chemo-Resistance of Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer via Recruiting WDR5 HSP90AA1-IT1 NA NA NA NA NA glioma NA M9380/3 qPCR, Western blot, Luciferase reporter assay, Luciferase reporter assay brain tissue down-regulated Taken together, it is concluded that HSP90AA1-IT1, performs its function via regulating the development of gliomas through miR-885-5p-CDK2 signaling axis, and this has added new perspective to its role in tumorigenesis, thus providing potential therapeutic targets for glioma treatment.Curve graph indicated survival time of the xenograft mice.

We find that LINC-PINT is downregulated in multiple types of cancer and acts as a tumor suppressor lncRNA by reducing the invasive phenotype of cancer cells. A cross-species analysis identifies a highly conserved sequence element in LINCPINT that is essential for its function. This sequence mediates a specific interaction with PRC2, necessary for the LINC-PINT-dependent repression of a pro-invasion signature of genes regulated by the transcription factor EGR1. 29078818 2017 The human lncRNA LINC-PINT inhibits tumor cell invasion through a highly conserved sequence element LINC-PINT LINC-PINT, LincRNA-Pint, MKLN1-AS1, PINT 378805 ENSG00000231721 NR_015431 GRCh38_7:130938963-131110176 pancreatic cancer C25 NA qPCR, ISH etc. pancreatic cancer tissues, blood down-regulated Linc-pint expression is lower in plasma samples from PCa patients than from healthy individuals. Linc-pint levels are lower in PCa tumors than in adjacent tissues, carcinoma of the ampulla of Vater (CAV) and cholangiocarcinoma (CCA), and suggest that Linc-pint could be used for distinguishing the cause of malignant obstructive jaundice. Low plasma Linc-pint levels correlate with tumor recurrence, while low tumor Linc-pint levels correlate with poor prognosis for PCa patients after pancreatectomy. 27708234 2016 Plasma and tumor levels of Linc-pint are diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers for pancreatic cancer.

Re-expression of linc-PINT in ALL cells induced inhibition of leukemic cell growth that was associated with apoptosis induction and cell cycle arrest in G2/M phase. linc-PINT induced the transcription of HMOX1 which reduced the viability of ALL cells. Intriguingly, we observed that treatment with anti-tumoral epigenetic drugs like LBH-589 (Panobinostat) and Curcumin induced the expression of linc-PINT and HMOX1 in ALL. 29560114 2018 Deregulation of linc-PINT in acute lymphoblastic leukemia is implicated in abnormal proliferation of leukemic cells. linc-POU3F3 POU3F3, BRN1, OTF8, brain-1, oct-8 NA ENSG00000198914 NA GRCh38_2:104855511-104858574 esophageal squamous cell cancer NA NA qPCR etc. blood (plasma and serum) up-regulated Furthermore, plasma levels of POU3F3, HNF1A-AS1 and SPRY4-IT1 were significantly higher in ESCC patients compared with normal controls.By receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) analysis, among the three lncRNAs investigated, plasma POU3F3 provided the highest diagnostic performance for detection of ESCC (the area under the ROC curve (AUC), 0.842. 25608466 2015 Identification of the long non-coding RNA POU3F3 in plasma as a novel biomarker for diagnosis of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. linc-POU3F3 POU3F3, BRN1, OTF8, brain-1, oct-8 NA ENSG00000198914 NA GRCh38_2:104855511-104858574 colon cancer C18 NA qPCR cell lines (HCT-116, HT-29) differential expression RNA secretion into the bloodstream; we have shown for the first time that the treatment of HCT-116 and HT-29 colon cancer cells with two anti-cancer agents (doxycycline or 3, 3'-diindolylmethane) results in profound changes in the intracellular content of several lnc RNAs 29116072 2017 Treatment with anti-cancer agents results in profound changes in lncRNA expression in colon cancer cells lincRNA-p21 TP53COR1, TRP53COR1, linc-p21, lincRNA-p21 102800311 NA NA NA head and neck cancer C76.0 NA qPCR etc. blood down-regulated LincRNA-p21 and GAS5 levels were found to be significantly lower in plasma of the HNC patients than in healthy individuals with median values 0.008 vs. 0.571 and 0.126 vs. 0.910, respectively. 26482616 2016 Do circulating long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) (LincRNA-p21, GAS 5, HOTAIR) predict the treatment response in patients with head and neck cancer treated with chemoradiotherapy. lincRNA-p21 TP53COR1, TRP53COR1, linc-p21, lincRNA-p21 102800311 NA NA NA Burkitts lymphoma NA M9687/3 qPCR, RNAi, Western blot etc. blood up-regulated We analyzed its expression in CLL and lymphoma in the context of DNA damage. 24 hours after IR, lincRNA-p21 expression was strongly induced in a p53-dependent manner in a very large set of CLL patients (n = 73).lncRNAs NEAT1 and lincRNA-p21 as novel elements of the p53-dependent DNA damage response machinery in CLL and lymphoma. 25971364 2015 p53-dependent non-coding RNA networks in Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia. lincRNA-p21 TP53COR1, TRP53COR1, linc-p21, lincRNA-p21 102800311 NA NA NA chronic lymphocytic leukemia NA M9823/3 qPCR, RNAi, Western blot etc. blood up-regulated We analyzed its expression in CLL and lymphoma in the context of DNA damage. 24 hours after IR, lincRNA-p21 expression was strongly induced in a p53-dependent manner in a very large set of CLL patients (n = 73).lncRNAs NEAT1 and lincRNA-p21 as novel elements of the p53-dependent DNA damage response machinery in CLL and lymphoma. 25971364 2015 p53-dependent non-coding RNA networks in Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia. lincRNA-p21 TP53COR1, TRP53COR1, linc-p21, lincRNA-p21 102800311 NA NA NA chronic lymphocytic leukemia NA M9823/3 qPCR etc. blood (plasma) down-regulated LincRNAp21 expression was low in the patients with CLL.

Its expression level was significantly correlated with Ann Arbor stages, B symptoms, performance status, IPI score and serum LDH. Moreover, patients with high levels of LincRNA-p21 expression had a favorable overall survival and progression-free survival. Furthermore, ectopic expression of lincRNA-p21 inhibited cell proliferation, arrested cycle progression and modulated cyclin D1, CDK4 and p21 expression in DLBCL cell lines. These results demonstrated lincRNA-p21 can be identified as a potential novel prognostic biomarker for prognosis in DLBCL and regulate cell proliferation and cycle in vitro 26475621 2015 LincRNA-p21 predicts favorable clinical outcome and impairs tumorigenesis in diffuse large B cell lymphoma patients treated with R-CHOP chemotherapy lincRNA-p21 TP53COR1, TRP53COR1, linc-p21, lincRNA-p21 102800311 NA NA NA prostate cancer C61.9 NA qPCR etc. prostate cancer tissues up-regulated The lincRNA-p21 levels were significantly higher in PCa than in BPH.

The levels of CD44, CD133, Oct4, Sox2, Nanog, lincRNA-ROR in CD44(+) CD133(+) cells were significantly increased,while miR-145 was decreased compared with CD44(-)CD133(-)cells(P<0.05). The levels of CD44,CD133,lnc-ROR in CD44(+) CD133(+) cells were significantly reduced upon cell adherence, while miR-145 was significantly increased. Bioinformatics analysis revealed that lincRNA-ROR shared miRNA response elements with core transcription factors Oct4,Sox2 and Nanog. MiR-145 significantly inhibited the expression of lincRNA-ROR, Oct4, Sox2 and Nanog. Silencing lincRNA-ROR significantly inhibited colon cancer stem cells proliferation and increased the sensitivity to chemotherapy. Linc-ROR functions as a key ceRNA to prevent core TFs,e.g.Oct4, Sox2, Nanog, from miR-145-mediated suppression in colon cancer stem cells and regulates cell proliferation and chemosensitivity. 29690669 2018 LincRNA-ROR functions as a ceRNA to regulate Oct4, Sox2, and Nanog expression by sponging miR-145 and its effect on biologic characteristics of colonic cancer stem cells linc-ROR LINC-ROR, ROR, lincRNA-RoR 100885779 ENSG00000258609 NR_048536 GRCh38_18:57054558-57072119 breast cancer C50 NA qPCR breast cancer cell lines, breast cancer tissues and plasma up-regulated Among lncRNAs, large intergenic non-coding RNA regulator of reprogramming (lincRNA-ROR or linc-ROR) is a member of subvariety of lncRNAs, was first discovered in induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), and plays a central role in promoting survival in iPSCs and embryonic stem cells (ESCs) through preventing the activation of cellular stress pathways.And linc-ROR also acts as a ceRNA to increase stemness gene Nanog expression by sponging miR-145 in cancer cells. 28869448 2017 Large intergenic non-coding RNA-ROR as a potential biomarker for the diagnosis and dynamic monitoring of breast cancer linc-ROR LINC-ROR, ROR, lincRNA-RoR 100885779 ENSG00000258609 NR_048536 GRCh38_18:57054558-57072119 breast cancer C50 NA qPCR breast cancer tissues, cell lines (MCF-7, MDA-MB-231, SK-BR-3, BT549, MCF10A) up-regulated Plasma lincRNA-ROR levels were associated with estrogen receptors and lymph node metastasis.Plasma lincRNA-ROR may be a potential biomarker for BC diagnosis and a dynamic monitor.LincRNA-ROR is reportedly overexpressed in triple-negative (ER-, PR-, HER2-) breast cancer and could serve as a biomarker or therapeutic target for improving survival. 29090518 2017 Detection and analysis of circulating large intergenic non-coding RNA regulator of reprogramming in plasma for breast cancer. linc-UFC1 UFC1, HSPC155 NA ENSG00000143222 NA GRCh38_1:161152776-161158856 gastric cancer C16 NA qPCR, Western blot, Luciferase reporter assay, etc. Human GC cell lines MGC-803, BGC-823, SGC-7901, HGC-27, MKN-45, GES-1, BGC-823, SGC-7901, MKN-45cells. tumor tissues, non-tumor tissues. up-regulated UFC1 has a promoting role in GC progression, at least in part, by acting as a miR-498 sponge and derepressing Lin28b expression, which would provide a novel biomarker for GC diagnosis and prognosis and offer a potential target for GC therapy.Suppression of Lin28b by miR-498 could be rescued by UFC1 overexpression, whereas Lin28b overexpression partially rescued UFC1 knockdown-mediated inhibition of GC cell function. Lin28b expression was increased in GC and suggested a co-expression pattern with UFC1. The circulating lncRNAs provide a blood-based biomarker for cancer detection.Survival time was analyzed by Kaplan–Meier method and log-rank test. P values less than 0.05 was considered statistically significant.The circulating lncRNAs provide a blood-based biomarker for cancer detection. 29970131 2018 Long non-coding RNA UFC1 promotes gastric cancer progression by regulating miR-498/Lin28b. lnc00462717 PSMD6-AS1, lnc00462717 109729140 ENSG00000243410 NA GRCh38_3:64011964-64016246 papillary thyroid cancer NA M8260/3 microarray, qPCR etc. blood up-regulated Compared with 131I-avid lung metastases, we discovered that two lncRNAs (ENST00000462717 and ENST00000415582) were upregulated and two (TCONS_00024700 and NR_028494) were downregulated in the non-131I-avid lung metastases of PTC.

Gain- and loss-of-function assay showed that LNC473 enhanced HCC cell proliferation and invasion and induced epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) process. Mechanistically, LNC473 associated with oncoprotein survivin and regulates its stability. Moreover, LNC473 could recruit deubiquitinase USP9X to inhibit the ubiquitination level of survivin and then increase survivin expression. Therefore, our results suggest that LNC473 exerts its functions as an oncogene in HCC progression and may be a therapeutic target for HCC treatment. 29605299 2018 Long noncoding RNA LNC473 inhibits the ubiquitination of survivin via association with USP9X and enhances cell proliferation and invasion in hepatocellular carcinoma cells. lnc-AF085935 NA NA NA NA GRCh38_X:133897449-133897922 hepatocellular carcinoma C22.0 M8170/3 qPCR etc. blood (serum) up-regulated The level of serum lncRNA-uc003wbd and lncRNA-AF085935 was significantly upregulated in HCC patients and HBV patients compared with that in normal controls.In addition, higher expressions of lncRNAs were observed in HCC patients than in HBV patients. LncRNA-uc003wbd and lncRNA-AF085935 were observed with an aberrant serum level in HCC and HBV patients, which is showing that both lncRNA-uc003wbd and lncRNA-AF085935 are able to be potential biomarkers for HCC and HBV screening. 25501706 2014 Investigation of serum lncRNA-uc003wbd and lncRNA-AF085935 expression profile in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma and HBV. lnc-GNAT1-1 NA 2779 ENSG00000114349 NA GRCh38_3:50191612-50196516 colorectal cancer C19.9 NA qPCR, RNAi, Western blot, Flow cytometry assay, Cell proliferation assay etc. CRC tissues, cell lines (SW480, SW620, HT29, LoVo, HCT116, and RKO) down-regulated Expression of lnc-GNAT1-1 was decreased in liver metastasis than the primary tumor, while the later one is lower than the paired normal mucosa. Decreased lnc-GNAT1-1 expression was associated unfavorable clinicopathological features and a poor prognosis of CRC patients. Overexpression of lnc-GNAT1-1 could suppress the liver metastasis of CRC cells. Finally, we explored the underlying mechanism of the role lnc-GNAT1-1 plays in CRC, and found a positive correlation between lnc-GNAT1-1 and Raf kinase inhibitor protein (RKIP) expression both in cells and in patients' tissues. 27912775 2016 A novel long non-coding RNA lnc-GNAT1-1 is low expressed in colorectal cancer and acts as a tumor suppressor through regulating RKIP-NF-kB-Snail circuit. lncRNA00544 NA NA NA NA NA breast cancer C50 NA Microarray, qPCR luminal BC tissues, breast cancer cell lines (MCF-7, ZR751, T47D, BCAP37, SKBR3, MDA-MB-453, MDA-MB-436, MDA-MB-231, MDA-MB-231HM) up-regulated Here, we aim to identify the lncRNAs which are involved in the particular type luminal BC progression.

We identified microRNA miR-4766-5p as an inhibitory target of lncRNA-PRLB.Both lncRNA-PRLB overexpression and miR-4766-5p knockdown could remarkably enhance cell growth, metastasis, and chemoresistance. We also determined that sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) was an inhibitory target of miR-4766-5p, and that SIRT1 was inhibited by both lncRNA-PRLB knockdown and miR-4766-5p overexpression.

Lnc-Tim3 plays a pivotal role in stimulating CD8 T exhaustion and the survival of the exhausted CD8 T cells. Mechanistically, Lnc-Tim3 specifically binds to Tim-3 and blocks its interaction with Bat3, thus suppressing downstream Lck/ NFAT1/AP-1 signaling, leading to nuclear localization of Bat3, and enhancing p300-dependent p53 and RelA transcriptional activation of anti-apoptosis genes including MDM2 and Bcl-2. 29706626 2018 Long non-coding RNA Lnc-Tim3 exacerbates CD8 T cell exhaustion via binding to Tim-3 and inducing nuclear translocation of Bat3 in HCC. lncUEGC1 NA NA NA NA NA gastric cancer C16 NA RNA-seq, qPCR etc. EGC cell up-regulated Through combinational analysis of the RNA sequencing results, we found two EGC-specific exosomal lncRNAs, lncUEGC1 and lncUEGC2, which were further confirmed to be remarkably up-regulated in exosomes derived from EGC patients and GCCs. Furthermore, stability testing demonstrates that almost all the plasma lncUEGC1 was encapsulated within exosomes and thus protected from RNase degradation. The diagnostic accuracy of exosomal lncUEGC1 was evaluated, and lncUEGC1 exhibited AUC values of 0.8760 and 0.8406 in discriminating EGC patients from healthy individuals and those with premalignant chronic atrophic gastritis, respectively, which was higher than the diagnostic accuracy of carcinoembryonic antigen.

Our data suggest that PM2.5 exposure induces ROS, which activates loc146880 expression. The lncRNA, in turn, up-regulates autophagy and promotes the malignant behaviors of lung cancer cells. 27836757 2017 PM2.5 exposure-induced autophagy is mediated by lncRNA loc146880 which also promotes the migration and invasion of lung cancer cells.

Attenuation of MALAT1 by RNA interference significantly lowered the growth, motility and stemness of GBM cells. In addition, silencing of MALAT1 clearly improved the sensitivity of GBM cells to chemotherapeutic agents including the current first-line therapy of GBM [temozolomide (TMZ)]. In animal models of GBM, tumor involution with a modest but statistically significant survival benefit was achieved with concurrent treatment of TMZ and nanocomplex-mediated silencing of MALAT1.Expressions of both OCT4 and NANOG, transcription factors known to maintain pluripotency and self-renewal of embryonic stem cells, were significantly reduced (34.2% and 20.2%, respectively) after scL-siMAL treatment. 29202181 2018 Targeted nanocomplex carrying siRNA against MALAT1 sensitizes glioblastoma to temozolomide.

By analyzing the online database Kaplan-Meier Plotter, MALAT1 was identified to be correlated with the overall survival (OS) and progression free survival (PFS) of patients with ovarian cancer. Finally, dual-luciferase reporter assays demonstrated that MALAT1 interacted with miR-143-3p, a miRNA that plays a role in EOC as demonstrated in our previous study. In conclusion, our results indicated that MALAT1 was overexpressed in EOC. Silencing of MALAT1 decreased EOC cell viability and inhibited EOC cell migration and invasion. These data revealed that MALAT1 may serve as a new therapeutic target of human EOC.

The present study elucidates a novel MALAT1-miR-101-Rap1B regulatory axis in glioma, contributing to a better understanding of the glioma pathogenesis and providing a promising therapeutic target for glioma patients. MALAT1 was found to be upregulated in glioma tissues and correlated with the progression of glioma.Although enormous efforts have been made to improve therapeutic strategies, the mortality of malignant glioma remains high and the median survival is less than 14 months. At present, the main treatment methods of glioma include surgical techniques, radiotherapy and chemotherapy, however, these traditional treatments obtain a poor prognosis due to the highly invasive nature and resistance to radiation and chemotherapy of glioma. 28551849 2017 Long non-coding RNA MALAT1 promotes proliferation and suppresses apoptosis of glioma cells through derepressing Rap1B by sponging miR-101.

Plasma levels of MALAT1-derived fragments are significantly elevated in patients with prostate cancer compared with those without prostate cance. MALAT1 regulates KRAS expression by influencing the spatial distribution of miR-217. MALAT1 inhibits the translocation of miR-217 from the nucleus to the cytoplasm. Patients with PDAC and high MALAT1 expression levels have shorter overall survival than patients with PDAC and low MALAT1 expression levels. Resistance to KRAS inhibition has been observed experimentally in studies regarding pancreatic cancer treatment34; thus, targeting MALAT1 may be another way to achieve KRAS/MAPK pathway inactivation. 28701723 2017 The lncRNA MALAT1 acts as a competing endogenous RNA to regulate KRAS expression by sponging miR-217 in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.

For the discrimination of NSCLC patients from cancer-free controls a sensitivity of 56% was calculated conditional on a high specificity of 96%. The results of this study indicate that MALAT1 complies with key characteristics of diagnostic biomarkers, i.e., minimal invasiveness, high specificity, and robustness. 24313945 2013 Evaluation of long noncoding RNA MALAT1 as a candidate blood-based biomarker for the diagnosis of non-small cell lung cancer.

PlncRNA-1 knockdown resulted in the up-regulation of a series of AR-targeting microRNAs, among which miR-34c and miR-297 were found to regulate both AR and PlncRNA-1 expression at the post-transcriptional level. Together, the data generated in this study indicate that PlncRNA-1 sponges AR-targeting microRNAs to protect AR from microRNA-mediated down-regulation and that these events form a regulatory feed-forward loop in the development of PCa. 26808578 2016 A feed-forward regulatory loop between androgen receptor and PlncRNA-1 promotes prostate cancer progression.

ZFAS1 acts as an oncogene in colorectal cancer.ZFAS1 was found to promote gastric cancer cell proliferation by inhibiting KLF2 and NKD2 expression. 28938617 2017 Development and validation of nomogram based on lncRNA ZFAS1 for predicting survival in lymph node-negative esophageal squamous cell carcinoma patients ZFAS1 ZFAS1, C20orf199, HSUP1, HSUP2, NCRNA00275, ZNFX1-AS1 441951 ENSG00000177410 NR_003604 GRCh38_20:49278178-49295738 hepatocellular carcinoma C22.0 M8170/3 qPCR etc. HCC tissues, Blood samples up-regulated ZFAS1 was significantly up-regulated in plasma of tumor patients.ZFAS1 is upregulated in HCC tissues and upregulation of ZFAS1 is correlated with poor prognosis in HCC 29559565 2018 Identification of long non-coding RNA ZFAS1 as a novel biomarker for diagnosis of HCC. ZFAS1 ZFAS1, C20orf199, HSUP1, HSUP2, NCRNA00275, ZNFX1-AS1 441951 ENSG00000177410 NR_003604 GRCh38_20:49278178-49295738 gastric cancer C16 NA qPCR, RNAi, Western blot, Flow cytometry assay etc. gastric cancer tissues, cell lines (BGC-823, MGC-803, SGC-7901, MKN-28 and AGS) up-regulated ZFAS1 expression was elevated in GC cells, tumor tissues, serum and serum exosomes of GC patients. ZFAS1 knockdown inhibited the proliferation and migration of GC cells by suppressing cell cycle progression, inducing apoptosis, and inhibiting epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). On the contrary, ZFAS1 overexpression promoted the proliferation and migration of GC cells. Moreover, ZFAS1 was present in exosomes and could be transmitted by exosomes to enhance GC cell proliferation and migration. 28285404 2017 Exosomes-mediated transfer of long noncoding RNA ZFAS1 promotes gastric cancer progression. ZFAS1 ZFAS1, C20orf199, HSUP1, HSUP2, NCRNA00275, ZNFX1-AS1 441951 ENSG00000177410 NR_003604 GRCh38_20:49278178-49295738 non small cell lung cancer C34 M8046/3 qPCR, etc. blood down-regulated while ZFAS1 level was only correlated with TNM stage (p=0.005 in TEPs, p=0.044 in plasma). Our data suggested that EGFRvIII can also be detected in blood platelets and there was no difference with detection in plasma. EGFRvIII RNA existed in both TEPs and plasma, but EGFR intracellular mutations cannot be detected in DNA of TEPs isolated from NSCLC. 29922089 2018 LncRNAs and EGFRvIII sequestered in TEPs enable blood-based NSCLC diagnosis. ZNF663P NA NA ENSG00000215452 NA GRCh38_20:46414228-46459276 multiple myeloma C42.1 M9732/3 Microarray, qPCR bone marrow up-regulated the lncRNA ST3GAL6-AS1, ZNF663P, LAMA5-AS1 and RP11-175D17.3 were significantly upregulated in newly diagnosed MM and R/R MM samples compared with IDA controls and MM patients who got CR (P < 0.05) (Fig. 6). There was no significant differences between newly diagnosed MM patients and R/R ones, or MM patients who received CR and IDA controls (P > 0.05)(Fig. 6). the expression level of ST3GAL6-AS1 was associated with D-S (P = 0.021), ISS (P = 0.038), R-ISS stage (P = 0.027), mSMART risk status (P = 0.013) and the percentage of malignant plasma cells in bone marrow (P = 0.031). 29459023 2018 Focusing on long non-coding RNA dysregulation in newly diagnosed multiple myeloma. ZNRD1-AS1 ZNRD1ASP, C6orf12, HCG8, HCGVIII, HCGVIII-1, HTEX4, NCRNA00171, TCTEX4, ZNRD1-AS, ZNRD1-AS1, ZNRD1AS, ZNRD1AS1 NA NA NA NA lung cancer C34 NA qPCR, Genotyping etc. blood down-regulated we first evaluated the expression ZNRD1-AS1 and ZNRD1 among lung cancer tissues and corresponding normal tissues, which showed higher expression of ZNRD1-AS1 and lower expression of ZNRD1. To reveal the underlying mechanisms, we then investigated the associations between ZNRD1 eQTLs SNPs in ZNRD1-AS1 and risk of lung cancer in Han Chinese populations. G allele of SNP rs9261204 was significantly associated with an increased risk of lung cancer when compared with A allele. A weaker, but similar effect was also observed in bladder cancer. SNP rs3757328 was also associated with increased risk of lung cancer. 27166266 2016 Strong evidence for LncRNA ZNRD1-AS1, and its functional Cis-eQTL locus contributing more to the susceptibility of lung cancer
