| Disease/Trait | colorectal cancer |
| LncRNA Target Gene | NA |
| Tissue | CRC tissues, cell lines (RKO, HCT116 etc.) |
| Experiment | microarray, qPCR, RNAi, Western blot etc. |
| Function Description | CRC cells transfected with PVT-1 siRNA exhibited significant loss of their proliferation and invasion capabilities. In these cells, the TGFB1 signalling pathway and apoptotic signals were significantly activated. In addition, univariate and multivariate analysis revealed that PVT-1 expression level was an independent risk factor for overall survival of colorectal cancer patients. |
