Cancer&Entry Information
| Cancer Name | osteosarcoma |
| ICD-0-3 | NA |
| Methods | qRT-PCR, Western blot |
| Sample | osteosarcoma tissues, cell lines (U2OS, MG-63, and KHOS) |
| Expression Pattern | up-regulated |
| Function Description | The expression levels of lnc-HOST2 in osteosarcoma tissues were significantly higher than those in corresponding noncancerous bone tissues (p < 0.01). Statistical assay indicated that the expression level of lnc-HOST2 was positively correlated with tumor stage (p = 0.003) and distant metastasis (p = 0.000).down-regulation of lnc-HOST2 suppressed proliferation and induced cell apoptosis in osteosarcoma cells. Notably, we confirmed that up-regulation of lnc-HOST2 led to Bcl-2 downregulation and Bax upregulation in osteosarcoma cells. |
