Cancer&Entry Information
| Cancer Name | gastric cancer |
| ICD-0-3 | C16 |
| Methods | qPCR, RNAi, Western blot etc. |
| Sample | gastric cancer tissues, cell lines (SGC7901, AGS, MGC803, MKN45, BGC823 etc.) |
| Expression Pattern | down-regulated |
| Function Description | We found that MEG3 levels were markedly decreased in gastric cancer tissues compared with adjacent normal tissues. Its expression level was significantly correlated with TNM stages, depth of invasion, and tumor size. Moreover, patients with low levels of MEG3 expression had a relatively poor prognosis. Furthermore, knockdown of MEG3 expression by siRNA could promote cell proliferation, while ectopic expression of MEG3 inhibited cell proliferation, promoted cell apoptosis, and modulated p53 expression in gastric cancer cell lines. |
