Cancer&Entry Information
| Cancer Name | hepatocellular carcinoma |
| ICD-0-3 | C22.0 |
| Methods | RT-PCR, Western blot, Luciferase reporter assay |
| Sample | HCC cell lines (HepG2 and MHCC97) |
| Expression Pattern | up-regulated |
| Function Description | MALAT1 was highly expressed in HCC cell lines when compared to normal liver cells. Malat1 silence suppressed HCC cells viability, migration and invasion, induced apoptosis, and arrested more cells in G0/G1 phase. Malat1 acted as a circular endogenous RNA (ceRNA) for miR-195. Malat1 silence could not suppress HCC cell growth and motility when miR-195 was knocked down. EGFR was a direct target of miR-195. miR-195 overexpression could not suppress HCC cell growth and motility when the 3'UTR site of EGFR was overexpressed. Furthermore, Malat1 silence blocked the activation of PI3K/AKT and JAK/STAT pathways, while EGFR overexpression activated them. |
