Cancer&Entry Information

Cancer Name	ovarian cancer
ICD-0-3	C56.9
Methods	qPCR, Western blot, in vitro knockdown, etc.
Sample	ovarian cancer tissues, normal ovarian epithelial cell (ovarian surface epithelium cell, OSE) and ovarian cancer cell lines (SKOV3, OVCAR3)
Expression Pattern	up-regulated
Function Description	RT-PCR results showed that the expression of JPX was upregulated in ovarian cancer tissues and ovarian cancer cell lines (p < 0.05), and it was significantly increased in large tumor tissues and metastatic lymph nodes (p < 0.05). The survival rate of high JPX expression patients was much lower than low JPX expression patients (p < 0.05), indicating that high expression of JPX predicted poor prognosis in patients with ovarian cancer. MTT assay, colony formation and scratch assay showed the repression of JPX and resulted with significantly decreased in cell proliferation, invasion and migration of OVCAR-3 cells compared with the control (p < 0.05). PI3K/mTOR inhibitor treatment showed overexpression of JPX could activate the PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway. Western blot assay showed that the expressions of p-PI3K, p-Akt, p-mTOR were significantly increased after overexpression of JPX (p < 0.05), and after the inhibition of PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway and overexpression of JPX, the tumor cell proliferation, invasion and migration were significantly repressed, compared with the control (p < 0.05).

Title	Long noncoding RNA-JPX predicts the poor prognosis of ovarian cancer patients and promotes tumor cell proliferation, invasion and migration by the PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway
