Cancer&Entry Information
| Cancer Name | hepatocellular carcinoma |
| ICD-0-3 | C22.0 |
| Methods | qPCR, RNAi, Western blot, Cell proliferation assay etc. |
| Sample | HCC tissues, cell lines (Huh7, HepG2, Hep3B, and BEL-7402) |
| Expression Pattern | up-regulated |
| Function Description | HOTAIR was overexpressed in the HCC tissues as compared with the adjacent non-tumor tissues and was associated with tumor size. In vitro assays revealed that the overexpression of HOTAIR promoted the activation of autophagy in HCC cell lines, whereas HOTAIR knockdown suppressed it. Further investigation revealed that overexpressed HOTAIR upregulated autophagy-related 3 (ATG3) and ATG7 expression in HCC cells. |

| Year | 2016 |
| Title | The long noncoding RNA HOTAIR activates autophagy by upregulating ATG3 and ATG7 in hepatocellular carcinoma. |
