Background: Recently, long intergenic non-coding RNA 01296 (LINC01296) has been demonstrated to regulate the initiation and progression of several cancers, but the functions of LINC01296 in ovarian cancer still remain unclear. The objective of our study was to determine the expression, biological roles, and clinical significance of LINC01296 in ovarian cancer.
Methods: LINC01296 expression was measured in ovarian cancer tissues or cell lines.

Embryonic stem (ES) cells are widely used for different purposes, including gene targeting, cell therapy, tissue repair, organ regeneration, and so on. However, studies and applications of ES cells are hindered by ethical issues regarding cell sources. To circumvent ethical disputes, great efforts have been taken to generate ES cell-like cells, which are not derived from the inner cell mass of blastocyst-stage embryos.
