Zusammenfassung: | The invention relates to a long non-coding RNA (LETN) useful as a diagnostic and therapeutic target for cancer. In particular, the invention discloses that IncRNA RP11-196G18.22 (LETN) is overexpressed in cancer cells, and such overexpression can promote the proliferation of cancer cells and are associated with short prognostic survival time in cancer patients. Reducing the expression of this IncRNA results in the inhibition of cancer cell growth, and thus inhibiting the expression of this IncRNA represents a new strategy for cancer therapy |
