Cancer&Entry Information
| Cancer Name | nasopharyngeal cancer |
| ICD-0-3 | C11 |
| Methods | qPCR, ISH etc. |
| Sample | primary NPC tissues |
| Expression Pattern | up-regulated |
| Function Description | Quantified using qPCR, HOTAIR expression levels in fresh tissue and paraffin-embedded samples were 5.2 ~ 48.4-fold higher compared with non-cancer tissue samples. Moreover, HOTAIR expression levels increased with clinical stage progression, which was consistent with ISH findings in the paraffin-embedded tissue. Most importantly, NPC patients with higher HOTAIR levels had a poor prognosis for overall survival using univariate and multivariate analysis. In addition, HOTAIR mediated the migration, invasion and proliferation of NPC cells in vitro. |

| Year | 2013 |
| Title | Long non-coding RNA HOTAIR is an independent prognostic marker for nasopharyngeal carcinoma progression and survival. |
