  6. GAPLINC expression was significantly upregulated in both glioblastoma (GBM) tissues and cell lines. The overexpression of GAPLINC was associated with shorter overall and disease-free survival. GAPLINC silencing suppressed GBM cells proliferation, migration, and invasion, and promoted apoptosis. GAPLINC acted as a competing endogenous RNA to sponge miR-331-3p and knockdown of GAPLINC promoted the expression of miR-331-3p.

  8. The in vitro studies showed knockdown of GAPLINC depressed osteosarcoma cell migration and invasion via inhibiting CD44 expression, but no effect on cell proliferation. In conclusion, GAPLINC may serve as a potential biomarker for predicting prognosis and developing therapy for osteosarcoma.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
