Cancer&Entry Information
| Cancer Name | non-functioning pituitary adenoma |
| ICD-0-3 | C75.1 |
| Methods | Microarray, qPCR etc. |
| Sample | NFPA tissues |
| Expression Pattern | down-regulated |
| Function Description | qPCR analyses showed that MEG3 expression was lost in 32 of 52 NFPAs (61.5 %). In addition, MEG3 lncRNA levels were significantly decreased in invasive NFPAs and non-invasive NFPAs compared to normal anterior pituitaries. Furthermore, MEG3 expression was significantly decreased in invasive NFPAs compared to non-invasive NFPAs. |
| Pubmed ID | 24469926 |
| Year | 2014 |
| Title | Expression of the long non-coding RNAs MEG3, HOTAIR, and MALAT-2 in non-functioning pituitary adenomas and their relationship to tumor behavior. |
