Cancer&Entry Information
| Cancer Name | hepatocellular carcinoma |
| ICD-0-3 | C22.0 |
| Methods | Microarray, qPCR etc. |
| Sample | HCC tissues |
| Expression Pattern | down-regulated |
| Function Description | RNA in situ hybridization showed intense cytoplasmic expression of MEG3 in non-neoplastic liver with absent or very weak expression in HCC tissues. Enforced expression of MEG3 in HCC cells significantly decreased both anchorage-dependent and -independent cell growth, and induced apoptosis. We confirmed a similar miR-29a-dependent modulation of DNMT protein expression in HCC cells. |

| Title | microRNA-29 can regulate expression of the long non-coding RNA gene MEG3 in hepatocellular cancer. |
