LncRNA BCAR4 promotes colon cancer progression via activating Wnt/β-catenin signaling

Abstract: BCAR4 (Breast Cancer Anti-Estrogen Resistance 4) is a long noncoding RNA that was identified as an oncogene in breast cancer. In our research, we found that the expression level of BCAR4 was upregulated in colon cancer tissues compared to paired normal tissues. What's more, higher BCAR4 expression was correlated with lower survival rate in patients with colon cancer. Mechanistically, we showed that BCAR4 activated Wnt/β-catenin signaling in colon cancer by protecting β-catenin from degradation. We also showed … Show more

“…Previous studies have suggested that lncRNA dysregulation in NSCLC is associated with lymph node metastasis, advanced stage, metastasis development, and poor patient prognosis. Anti‐tumor drug resistance in various carcinomas, including colon, bladder, ovarian, and gastric cancers, and NSCLC, is associated with lncRNAs. Although advances have been achieved in diagnosis and treatment, NSCLC is still one of the most common malignancies, with five‐year survival rates < 15% .…”

“…Gong et al previously reported that KCNQ1OT1 might promote glioma development by sponging miR-370, 8 the overexpression of which has been found to reduce beta-catenin protein level and transcriptional activity in osteosarcoma cells. 31 LncRNAs interacting with beta-catenin has been demonstrated to prevent beta-catenin degradation, 32,33 and research by Gao et al have shown the KCNQ1OT1-beta-catenin association. 16 In the present research we didn't observe any signicant inuence on beta-catenin protein level in osteosarcoma by KCNQ1OT1 overexpression or knockdown; however, KCNQ1OT1 overexpression signicantly increased beta-catenin's transcriptional activity and reduced beta-catenin Ser37 phosphorylation level, which is one of the initiative steps leading to beta-catenin degradation, while KCNQ1OT1 knockdown showed opposite effects.…”

“…Recently, many studies have reported that lncRNAs can play an important role in various biological processes including cell development, proliferation, and migration in cancers. LncRNA BCAR4 can promote colon cancer progression through activating Wnt/β-catenin (Ouyang et al, 2017).…”
