Long non-coding RNA DILC promotes the progression of gallbladder carcinoma.

Increasing evidence has demonstrated that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) contribute to tumorigenesis, progression and recurrence of various malignancies including Gallbladder carcinoma (GBC). Lnc-DILC is reported to be the tumor suppressor gene to play an important role in liver cancer stem cells (CSCs). However, the role of lnc-DILC in GBC remains to be elucidated.

Long non-coding RNA DILC suppresses cell proliferation and metastasis in colorectal cancer.

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common malignant tumors and one of the leading causes of cancer-related death in both men and women. The prognosis of CRC remains poor due to the advanced stage and cancer metastasis at the time of diagnosis. However, the exact mechanism of tumorigenesis in CRC remains unclear.
