The expressions of YAP1, β-catenin and survivin in colon cancer tissues and their clinical significance.

We aimed to evaluate the effects of YAP1, β-catenin, and survivin on the onset and progression of colon cancer, and to explore their correlations. The expressions of YAP1, β-catenin, and survivin in 106 colon cancer tissues and 55 normal colon mucosa tissues were measured by immunohistochemical assay. The correlations between their expressions and clinical and pathological characteristics were analyzed.

SNHG 6 promotes the progression of Colon and Rectal adenocarcinoma via miR-101-3p and Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.

Background: Small nucleolar RNA host gene 6 (SNHG6) regulates diverse biological processes in cancers. Potential function of SNHG6 in human colon and rectal adenocarcinoma (CRC) was evaluated.

Methods: Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction, MTT assays, Colony formation assays, Transwell assay, Western Blotting and Luciferase reporter assays were performed to measure the biological functions and potential molecular mechanisms of SNHG6 in CRC.

Long non-coding RNA-422 acts as a tumor suppressor in colorectal cancer.

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most frequent cancer in numerous of countries worldwidely. The initiation and progression of CRC is an extremely complex process, and have been suggested a correlation with Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs). Our results showed that lncRNA-422(ENST00000415820) significantly downregulated in the tissues and serum of CRC patients, and is closely associated with the poor prognosis.
