Cancer&Entry Information
| Cancer Name | osteosarcoma |
| ICD-0-3 | NA |
| Methods | qPCR etc. |
| Sample | osteosarcoma tissues, cell lines (U2OS etc.) |
| Expression Pattern | up-regulated |
| Function Description | We found significantly higher TUG1 and n377360 expression levels in osteosarcoma tissues compared with matched non-tumorous tissues. Suppression of TUG1 and n377360 expression by siRNA significantly impaired the cell proliferation potential of osteosarcoma cells. Furthermore, inhibition of TUG1 expression significantly promoted osteosarcoma cell apoptosis. The overexpression of TUG1 and n377360 in osteosarcoma specimens and the functional role of TUG1 and n377360 regarding cell proliferation and apoptosis in an osteosarcoma cell line provided evidence that the use of TUG1 or n377360 may be a viable but an as yet unexplored therapeutic strategy in tumors that over express these factors. |
