Cancer&Entry Information
| Cancer Name | acute myeloid leukemia |
| ICD-0-3 | NA |
| Methods | qPCR, Western blot, Luciferase reporter assay etc. |
| Sample | tumor tissues,cell lines(KG1, U937, THP-1, HL60,HS-5) |
| Expression Pattern | up-regulated |
| Function Description | The results showed that UCA1 knockdown inhibited proliferation and induced apoptosis in AML cells (U937 and HL60). Mechanistically, UCA1 acted as a sponge of miR-296-3p by binding to miR-296-3p. Myc, a target of miR-296-3p, was positively regulated by UCA1. Functional assay showed that the anti-AML effect of UCA1 knockdown could be abrogated by miR-296-3p inhibition and Myc overexpression. Moreover, UCA1 knockdown inhibited AML cell tumorigenesis in vivo, which was associated with regulation of miR-296-3p and Myc expression. In conclusion, UCA1 modulates AML progression by regulating miR-296-3p/Myc axis. |
