Long Noncoding RNA MEG3 Is an Epigenetic Determinant of Oncogenic Signaling in Functional Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumor Cells
28 Aug 2017
Abstract excerpt
The long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) MEG3 is significantly downregulated in pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PNETs). MEG3 loss corresponds with aberrant upregulation of the oncogenic hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) receptor c-MET in PNETs. Meg3 overexpression in a mouse insulin-secreting PNET cell line, MIN6, downregulates c-Met expression. However, the molecular mechanism by which MEG3 regulates c-MET is not known....
