High Expression of <i>CAI2</i> , a <i>9p21</i> -Embedded Long Noncoding RNA, Contributes to Advanced-Stage Neuroblastoma
14 Jul 2014
Abstract excerpt
Neuroblastoma is a pediatric cancer with significant genomic and biologic heterogeneity. p16 and ARF, two important tumor-suppressor genes on chromosome 9p21, are inactivated commonly in most cancers, but paradoxically overexpressed in neuroblastoma. Here, we report that exon γ in p16 is also part of an undescribed long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) that we have termed CAI2 (CDKN2A/ARF Intron 2 lncRNA). CAI2 is a...
