Cancer&Entry Information
| Cancer Name | cervical cancer |
| ICD-0-3 | C53 |
| Methods | qPCR, Western blot |
| Sample | cervical cancer tissues, cell lines (HeLa, CaSki, SiHa, ME-180) |
| Expression Pattern | up-regulated |
| Function Description | BLACAT1 expression was significantly increased in CC tissues and cells lines. In addition, the expression level of BLACAT1 was positively correlated with distant metastasis (p=0.001), FIGO stage (p=0.010), and histological grade (p=0.012). Moreover, patients with high BLACAT12 expression had shorter overall survival and progression-free survival time than those with low BLACAT1 expression, with the data provided by multivariate analysis suggesting that BLACAT1 expression could serve as an independent prognostic factor in CC patients. Functionally, in vitro assay indicated that down-regulation of BLACAT1 significantly suppressed CC cells proliferation, migration, and invasion. Mechanistically, the results of Western blot showed that the expression of ?-catenin and MMP-7 was significantly down-regulated in CC cells transfected with si-BLACAT1. |
