Cancer&Entry Information
| Cancer Name | hepatocellular carcinoma |
| ICD-0-3 | C22.0 |
| Methods | qPCR etc. |
| Sample | HCC cell lines |
| Expression Pattern | up-regulated |
| Function Description | We found that lncRNA-DANCR is over-expressed in stem-like HCC cells and this can serve as a prognostic biomarker for HCC patients. Experiments showed that DANCR markedly increased stemness features of HCC cells to promote tumorigenesis and intra-/extra-hepatic tumor colonization.Our studies reveal a significance and mechanism of DANCR action in increasing stemness features and offer a potential prognostic marker and a therapeutic target for HCC. |
