EL0227 BANCR colorectal cancer qPCR, Western blot etc. colorectal cancer tissue up-regulated N/A The quantitative polymerase chain reaction results showed that BANCR was frequently overexpressed in cancer tissues and this overexpression was found to significantly correlate with lymph node metastasis and tumour stage. The ectopic expression of BANCR contributed to the migration of human CRC Caco-2 cells, whereas knockdown of BANCR inhibited the migration of the HCT116 cells in vitro. Further investigation into the underlying mechanisms responsible for the migratory effects revealed that BANCR induced the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) through an MEK/extracellular signal-regulated kinase-dependent mechanism as treatment with the MEK inhibitor, U0126 decreased migration and reversed the EMT in the BANCR-overexpressed HCT116 cells. 25013510 Lnc2Cancer

These repressive effects were negated by use of inhibitors against either the PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway or Raf/MAPK pathway, suggesting CRNDE is a downstream target of both signaling cascades. 24184209 Lnc2Cancer

Patients with high long non-coding RNA FTX showed poorer overall survival than those with low long non-coding RNA FTX. Multivariate analyses indicated that status of long non-coding RNA FTX was an independent prognostic factor for patients.

As this methylation-dependent LOI was present in both tumors and normal colonic mucosa, it is possible that hypermethylation creates a field defect predisposing to cancer. 11120891 Lnc2Cancer

EL0556 H19 colorectal cancer qPCR, RFLP-PCR etc. CRC tissue up-regulated N/A The results of the present study suggest that LOI of IGF2 is important in the carcinogenesis of CRC. Hypomethylation of the sixth CTCF-binding site in the DMR of IGF2/H19 is linked to LOI and the common IGF2-H19 enhancer competition model for IGF2 imprinting does not apply to human CRC. 22427002 Lnc2Cancer

GSEA indicated that gene sets most correlated with them were those named up-regulated in KRAS-over, down-regulated in JAK2-knockout, down-regulated in PDGF-over and down-regulated in TBK1-knockout, all of which were cancer-related. Subsequently, GO analyses of most significantly correlated coding genes of HOTAIR and lncRNA-422 showed that these two lncRNAs may participate in carcinogenesis by regulating protein coding genes involved in special biological process relevant to cancer. 25456707 Lnc2Cancer

EL0578 HOTAIR colorectal cancer qPCR, Western blot, knockdown etc. CRC tissue, cell lines (FHC, CCL244, HCT116, SW480, LOVO) up-regulated expression Results showed that CRC patients had higher HOTAIR expression in tumor tissues compared with adjacent normal tissues. In vitro, downregulation of HOTAIR reduced proliferation, migration and invasiveness while enhanced apoptosis and radio-sensitivity of CRC cells. Taken together, our findings suggest that long non-coding RNA HOTAIR expression is closely associated with tumor invasion and radiosensitivity, indicating the potential role in diagnostics and therapeutics of CRC. 26549670 Lnc2Cancer

EL0582 HOTTIP colorectal cancer qPCR etc. colorectal cancer samples and 21 adjacent non-malignant samples up-regulated expression Our results indicated that lncRNA HOTTIP was highly expressed in CRC compared with adjacent non-malignant tissues (P<0.001), and positively correlated with T stage (T1-2 vs. T3-4, P = 0.001), clinical stage (I-II stages vs. III-IV stages, P = 0.003), and distant metastasis (absent vs. present, P = 0.014) in CRC patients. Furthermore, we also observed that increased lncRNA HOTTIP expression was an unfavorable prognostic factor in CRC patients (P = 0.001), regardless of T stage, distant metastasis and clinical stage. Finally, overexpression of lncRNA HOTTIP was supposed to be an independent poor prognostic factor for CRC patients through multivariate analysis (P = 0.017). 26617875 Lnc2Cancer
EL0582 HOTTIP colorectal cancer qPCR, Western blot, knockdown etc. CRC and adjacent non-tumor colorectal samples, cell lines (DLD-1, SW480, SW620, HCT116) up-regulated interaction We found that overexpression of HOTTIP is correlated with an advanced pathological stage and a larger tumor size. Moreover, functional analyses revealed that the knockdown of HOTTIP expression by small interfering RNA (siRNA) or small hairpin RNA (shRNA) could inhibit cell proliferation and induce cell apoptosis. More importantly, we observed that HOTTIP knockdown induced a marked increase in the number of cells in the G0/G1 phase and a reduction in the number of cells in the S phase in both DLD-1 cells and SW480 cells. An in vivo experiment also revealed that the knockdown of HOTTIP inhibited tumor growth.

EL0853 MALAT1 colorectal cancer microarray, qPCR, Western blot etc. CRC tissue, cell lines (HCT116, SW480, SW620, LoVo, CaCo-2 etc.) up-regulated regulation In the present study, we found that MALAT1 was up-regulated in human primary CRC tissues with lymph node metastasis. Knockdown of MALAT1 inhibited CRC tumor growth and metastasis. MALAT1 regulated at least 243 genes in CRC cells in a genome-wide expression profiling. Among these genes, PRKA kinase anchor protein 9 (AKAP-9) was significantly up-regulated at both mRNA and protein levels. AKAP-9 was highly expressed in CRC cells with metastatic potential and human primary CRC tissues with lymph node metastasis. 25446987 Lnc2Cancer

EL0853 MALAT1 colorectal cancer qPCR etc. colorectal cancer tissue up-regulated regulation The MALAT1 levels in cancerous tissues were 2.26 times higher than those measured in noncancerous tissues, and this difference was statistically significant. Based on their expression level of MALAT1, the patients were divided into a high MALAT1 expression group and a low expression group. Patients with tumours harbouring higher expression of MALAT1 showed a significantly worse prognosis with a HR of 2.863 for DFS and 3.968 for OS. Furthermore, patients with perineural invasion demonstrated significantly worse DFS and OS than those without perineural invasion. 25031737 Lnc2Cancer
EL0853 MALAT1 colorectal cancer qPCR, in vitro knockdown, RIP etc. cell lines (LoVo, HCT116 ) up-regulated N/A We found that overexpression of MALAT1 could promote cell proliferation and migration in vitro, and promote tumour growth and metastasis in nude mice. In CRC, MALAT1 could bind to SFPQ, thus releasing PTBP2 from the SFPQ/PTBP2 complex. In turn, the increased SFPQ-detached PTBP2 promoted cell proliferation and migration. SFPQ critically mediated the regulatory effects of MALAT1. Moreover, in CRC tissues, MALAT1 and PTBP2 were overexpressed, both of which were associated closely with the invasion and metastasis of CRC. MALAT1 might be a potential predictor for tumour metastasis and prognosis.Furthermore, the interaction between MALAT1 and SFPQ could be a novel therapeutic target for CRC. 25025966 Lnc2Cancer
EL0853 MALAT1 colorectal cancer qPCR, Western blot, Luciferase reporter assay, knockdown, RIP etc. CRC tissue, cell lines (LoVo etc.) up-regulated N/A Using in situ hybridization, we found there was higher expression of MALAT1 in the CRC than the adjacent normal colorectal tissue. We next conducted correlation analysis between MALAT1 expression and clinicopathological characteristics of CRC. A statistically significant association was observed between MALAT1 expression and extent of metastasis and invasion. In contrast to adjacent normal tissues, the MALAT1 expression in CRC tissues resected from patients with metastatic diseases was higher than those with no metastasis. 24244343 Lnc2Cancer
EL0861 MEG3 colorectal cancer qPCR, Western blot, FCA etc. CRC tissue down-regulated expression The lower expression of MEG3 was remarkably correlated with low histological grade, deep tumor invasion, and advanced tumor node metastasis (TNM) stage. Multivariate analyses revealed that MEG3 expression served as an independent predictor for overall survival. Further experiments revealed that overexpressed MEG3 significantly inhibited CRC cell proliferation both in vitro and in vivo. MEG3 is involved in the development and progression of colorectal cancer by regulating cell proliferation and shows that MEG3 may be a potential diagnostic and prognostic target in patients with colorectal cancer. 25636452 Lnc2Cancer

Low LOC554202 expression was closely associated with advanced pathologic stage and a larger tumor size. The overexpression of LOC554202 decreased the cell proliferation and induced apoptosis in vitro and hindered tumorigenesis in vivo. LOC554202 regulated cell apoptosis partly through the activation of specific caspase cleavage cascades. 26362196 Lnc2Cancer
EL0932 MNX1-AS1 colorectal cancer microarray, qPCR, Luciferase reporter assay etc. CRC tissue, cell lines (HCT116, RKO, HT29, SW620 etc.) up-regulated expression Of the seletced lncRNAs, four lncRNAs named CCAT3, CCAT4, CCAT5, and CCAT6 (also named MYCLo-2) are upregulated in CRC cell lines, and two lncRNAs named CCAT7 and CCAT8 are downregulated in CRC cell lines. MYC-regulated lncRNAs, named MYCLos. The MYC-regulated MYCLos may function in cell proliferation and cell cycle by regulating MYC target genes such as CDKN1A (p21) and CDKN2B (p15), suggesting new regulatory mechanisms of MYC-repressed target genes through lncRNAs. 25663692 Lnc2Cancer
EL0965 ncNRFR colorectal cancer qPCR, Northern bolt, in vitro knockdown etc. colonic epithelial cell tumor tissue up-regulated N/A Stable overexpression of ncNRFR in non-transformed, conditionally immortalized mouse colonocytes results in malignant transformation, as determined by growth in soft agar and formation of highly invasive tumors in nude mice. Moreover, ncNRFR appears to inhibit the function of the tumor suppressor let-7. These results suggest precise regulation of ncNRFR is necessary for proper cell growth in the colonic crypt, and its misregulation results in neoplastic transformation. 24045012 Lnc2Cancer
EL0969 NCRUPAR colorectal cancer qPCR, Immunohistochemistry etc. CRC tissue down-regulated interaction Our results indicated that the expression of ncRuPAR was significantly downregulated in CRC compared with paired adjacent nontumor tissues, but the level of PAR-1 mRNA in cancerous tissues was significantly higher than in adjacent normal areas.

EL1052 PCAT1 colorectal cancer qPCR etc. CRC tissue up-regulated N/A Our results showed that PCAT-1 expression in CRC tissues was significantly upregulated compared with the matched normal tissues and the overexpression of PCAT-1 was found in 64 % (62/81) of CRC. In addition, there was a significant association between PCAT-1 expression and distant metastasis. More important, CRC patients with PCAT-1 higher expression have shown significantly poorer overall survival than those with lower PCAT-1 expression. In conclusion, our results suggest that high expression of PCAT-1 is involved in CRC progression and could be a novel biomarker of poor prognosis in patient with colorectal cancer. 23640607 Lnc2Cancer
