Cancer&Entry Information
| Cancer Name | osteosarcoma |
| ICD-0-3 | NA |
| Methods | qPCR, Luciferase reporter assay, Flow cytometry assay, in vitro knockdown etc. |
| Sample | osteosarcoma tissues, cell lines (HOS, Saos-2, MG-63, U2OS) |
| Expression Pattern | up-regulated |
| Function Description | We found that lncRNA-UCA1 expression was upregulated in osteosarcoma tissues and cell lines. High lncRNA-UCA1 expression was significantly correlated with large tumor size, high tumor grade, positive distant metastasis, and advanced clinical stage. Multivariate regression analysis identified lncRNA-UCA1 overexpression as an independent unfavorable prognostic factor. lncRNA-UCA1 knockdown inhibited osteosarcoma cell proliferation, promoted cell apoptosis, and suppressed cell invasion and migration, whereas lncRNA-UCA1 overexpression showed opposite effects. |
