Summary: SOX2 overlapping transcript (SOX2OT) is a long non-coding RNA associated with cancer pathogenesis. It contributes to a variety of cellular functions and recent evidence propounds its association with autophagy process. It has been showed that SOX2OT can regulate the expression of different autophagy associated factors in human cells with different mechanisms, however more remains to ...

breast carcinoma is the major cause of cancer-related death in women. the incidence of this carcinoma is rising and there are many attempts to decrease this problem. the aim of this study was detection of full-length cytokeratin 19 (ck19) mrna, in peripheral blood and tissue of breast cancer patients in early stage of cancer. in this study, rt-pcr (reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reactio...

Background:Long non-coding RNAs, as a big part of non-coding RNAs, are considered functionally more than past. These transcripts could be involved in carcinogenesis. SNHG6, as a long non-coding RNA, has been reported to be expressed more in colorectal cancer tissues than non-cancerous ones.  Colorectal cancer as a malignancy needs fast prognostic and diagnostic methods for well...
