Abstract

LncRNAs participate in the proliferation, apoptosis, and invasion of colorectal cancer. We aimed at investigating the uncovered effect of lncRNALUADT1 on colorectal cancer. The relative expression level of lncRNALUADT1 in tumor specimen was tested by Real-time quantitative PCR. The association of lncRNALUADT1 with clinical pathological data was analyzed by univariate, multivariate Cox and Kaplan-Meier curve. LncRNALUADT1 expression was up-regulated in colorectal cancer, and correlated with tumor size, metastasis, and TNM staging. Both univariate analysis and multivariate test indicated that lncRNALUADT1 high expression, TNM staging, and lymph node metastasis were closely related. Moreover, high expression of lncRNALUADT1 suggested the poor overall survival of patients. LncRNA LUADT1 might contribute to the development of colorectal cancer.

Apoptosis

Apoptosis is a specific process that leads to programmed cell death through the activation of an evolutionary conserved intracellular pathway leading to pathognomic cellular changes distinct from cellular necrosis

Apoptosis in Cancer

Apoptosis is an important mechanism in cancer. By evading apoptosis, tumors can continue to grow without regulation and metastasize systemically. Many therapies are evaluating the use of pro-apoptotic activation to eliminate cancer growth. Here is the latest research on apoptosis in cancer.
