Ectopic expression of lncRNA-MALAT1 has been discovered in recurrent colorectal cancer (CRC) and metastatic sites in postsurgical patients, however, its biological mechanism remained unelucidated. Our study first revealed the novel roles of MALAT1 in promoting CRC metastasis through two mechanisms: first, MALAT1 binds miR-15 family members, to "de-inhibit" their effect on LRP6 expression, enhances β-catenin signaling, leading to elevated transcriptional levels of downstream target genes RUNX2. Second, MALAT1 binds SFPQ, and dissociates SFPQ/PTBP2 dimer to release free PTBP2, which elevates translational levels of RUNX2, through interacting with IRES domain in the 5'UTR of the corresponding RUNX2 mRNAs. Moreover, increased RUNX2 expression levels were detected in recurrent CRC tumors, which were closely associated with TMN stages, metastasis, as well as CRC patients' survival. Our study demonstrated that MALAT1 and RUNX2 may serve as two biomarkers for predicting the recurrence and metastasis of CRC patients.

Bioinformatics resource system including web server and web service for functional annotation and enrichment analyses of gene lists. Consists of comprehensive knowledgebase and set of functional analysis tools. Includes gene centered database integrating heterogeneous gene annotation resources to facilitate high throughput gene functional analysis.
View all literature mentionsNon-profit plasmid repository dedicated to helping scientists around the world share high-quality plasmids. Facilitates archiving and distributing DNA-based research reagents and associated data to scientists worldwide. Repository contains over 65,000 plasmids, including special collections on CRISPR, fluorescent proteins, and ready-to-use viral preparations. There is no cost for scientists to deposit plasmids, which saves time and money associated with shipping plasmids themselves. All plasmids are fully sequenced for validation and sequencing data is openly available. We handle the appropriate Material Transfer Agreements (MTA) with institutions, facilitating open exchange and offering intellectual property and liability protection for depositing scientists. Furthermore, we curate free educational resources for the scientific community including a blog, eBooks, video protocols, and detailed molecular biology resources.
