Gastric cancer is one of the most common cancers in world. Delayed diagnosis cause death patients. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are a group non-coding that effective incidence cancers. Studies different determined HOTAIR as an important lncRNA tumorigenesis. In gastric cancer, function initiation and progression seems to be crucial. this study, we confirmed significant differential expression ...

Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma (ESCC) is one of the most common malignant cancers worldwide with a high death rate worldwide. Long non-coding RNA (LncRNA) has been recently demonstrated to play a critical role in ESCC. LncRNA HOTAIR played important regulatory roles in ESCC. We highlight the molecular mechanisms by which HOTAIR could influence the expression of Hexokinase 2 (HK2) in ESCC th...

Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC), as a unique head and neck cancer type, is particularly prevalent in certain geographic areas such as eastern Asia. Until now, the therapeutic options have been restricted mainly to radiotherapy or chemotherapy. However, the clinical treatment effect remains unsatisfactory even if the combined radio-chemotherapies. Therefore, it is urgently needed to develop effec...

Long non-coding RNA HOTAIR predicts negative tumor prognosis and exhibits oncogenic activity. Herein, we demonstrate HOTAIR promotes human liver cancer stem cell malignant growth through downregulation of SETD2. Mechanistically, HOTAIR reduces the recuritment of the CREB, P300, RNA polII onto the SETD2 promoter region that inhibits SETD2 expression and its phosphorylation. Thereby, the SETD2 bi...

PURPOSE LncRNA HOTAIR plays an important role in many cancer. Several studies have shown that some HOTAIR SNPs might be associated with tumor risk in case-control studies, but the results are inconsistent and inconclusive. Therefore, it is necessary to better evaluate association between the HOTAIR SNPs and the risk of cancer. RESULTS rs920778, rs7958904 and rs874945 but not rs4759314 and rs1...

OBJECTIVE Lung cancer, the primary cause of cancer-related death worldwide, imperatively requires new therapeutic approaches that target the molecular regulatory machinery. Even though it has been reported that long noncoding RNAs are involved in different cancer types, limited data are available on the expression and function of long noncoding RNAs in lung cancer metastasis. The major objectiv...

The HOX transcript antisense intergenic RNA (HOTAIR), a well-known long noncoding RNA, is involved in pathogenesis and progress of multiple tumors. Its ectopic expression and biological functions have been observed in gastric cancer. In this study, we conducted a two-stage case-control study to evaluate whether genetic variations of HOTAIR were associated with gastric cancer risk. We identified...

Abstract Background Cervical cancer (CC) is one of the most common gynaecological malignancies all around world. The mechanisms cervical carcinoma formation remain under close scrutiny. long non-coding RNAs (lncRNA) and microRNAs (miRNAs) play important roles in controlling gene expression promoting development progression by acting as competitive endogenous RNA (ceRNA). However, lncRNA associa...

The prognosis of gastric cancer (GC) patients with peritoneal dissemination remains poor, and a better understanding of the underlying mechanisms is critical for the development of new treatments that will improve survival in these patients. This study aimed to clarify the clinical and biological role of two key metastasis-associated long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in GC. We analyzed the express...

Sensitive and non-invasive biomarkers for pancreatic cancer (PC) are lacking. We aimed to identify salivary long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) as biomarkers in diagnosis of resectable PC. Five well-documented lncRNAs: H19, HOTAIR, HOTTIP, MALAT1, PVT1, which are most closely associated with pancreatic cancer from previous studies were selected as putative lncRNA biomarkers. Their expression in panc...
