Cancer&Entry Information
| Cancer Name | glioma |
| ICD-0-3 | NA |
| Methods | qPCR, RNAi, Western blot, Cell proliferation assay etc. |
| Sample | glioma tissues, cell lines (U87 and U251) |
| Expression Pattern | up-regulated |
| Function Description | We found that ZFAS1 was upregulated in glioma tissues and cell lines. High ZFAS1 expression in glioma tissues was significantly correlated with advanced tumor stage and poor overall survival. Furthermore, in vitro assays demonstrated that ZFAS1 inhibition significantly suppressed glioma cell proliferation, migration and invasion. Importantly, we further confirmed that epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and the Notch signaling pathway was inactivated in the glioma cells after ZFAS1 knockdown. |

| Title | Long non-coding RNA ZFAS1 is an unfavourable prognostic factor and promotes glioma cell progression by activation of the Notch signaling pathway. |
