LncRNA LINC00470 promotes the degradation of PTEN mRNA to facilitate malignant behavior in gastric cancer cells.

TL;DR: It is shown that LINC00470 was significantly upregulated in GC tissues and cell lines, and correlated with distant metastasis, TNM stage and poor prognosis, and might serve as a therapeutic target for GC patients.

Snail, ZEB and bHLH factors in tumour progression: an alliance against the epithelial phenotype?

TL;DR: The identification of Snail, ZEB and some basic helix-loop-helix factors as inducers of epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) and potent repressors of E-cadherin expression has opened new avenues of research with potential clinical implications.

MEG3 noncoding RNA: a tumor suppressor

TL;DR: Evidence is presented that inactivation of Meg3 leads to a significant increase in expression of angiogenesis-promoting genes and microvessel formation in the brain, suggesting that MEG3 functions as a novel lncRNA tumor suppressor.
Journal ArticleDOI

Activation of p53 by MEG3 non-coding RNA.

TL;DR: It is found that transfection of expression constructs for MEG3 and its isoforms results in a significant increase in p53 protein levels and dramatically stimulates p 53-dependent transcription from a p53-responsive promoter, supporting the concept that M EG3 functions as a non-coding RNA.

Long non-coding RNA MEG3 inhibits NSCLC cells proliferation and induces apoptosis by affecting p53 expression

TL;DR: MEG3 expression was decreased in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) tumor tissues compared with normal tissues, and associated with advanced pathologic stage, and tumor size, which indicates that MEG3 may represent a new marker of poor prognosis and is a potential therapeutic target for NSCLC intervention.
