Cancer&Entry Information
| Cancer Name | bladder cancer |
| ICD-0-3 | C67 |
| Methods | qPCR, Western blot etc. |
| Sample | bladder cancer tissues, cell line (T24) |
| Expression Pattern | down-regulated |
| Function Description | A significant negative correlation was observed between MEG3 levels and LC3-II (autophagy marker) levels in vivo. We further demonstrated that MEG3 markedly suppressed autophagy activation, whereas MEG3 knockdown activated autophagy in human bladder cancer cell lines. Downregulated expression of MEG3 inhibited cell apoptosis, whereas autophagy inhibition increased MEG3-knockdown cell apoptosis. MEG3 knockdown also increased cell proliferation. |

| Title | Downregulated MEG3 activates autophagy and increases cell proliferation in bladder cancer. |
