Cancer&Entry Information
| Cancer Name | bladder cancer |
| ICD-0-3 | C67 |
| Methods | qPCR, RNAi, Western blot, RIP, Luciferase reporter assay etc. |
| Sample | bladder cancer tissues |
| Expression Pattern | up-regulated |
| Function Description | We confirmed that TUG1 was overexpressed in bladder cancer tissues and established cell lines. Knockdown of TUG1 inhibited bladder cancer cell metastasis both in vitro and in vivo. Furthermore, we found that TUG1 promoted cancer cell invasion and radioresistance through inducing epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT). Interestingly, TUG1 decreased the expression of miR-145 and there was a reciprocal repression between TUG1 and miR-145 in an Argonaute2-dependent manner. ZEB2 was identified as a down-stream target of miR-145 and TUG1 exerted its function through the miR-145/ZEB2 axis. |
