[1] PubMed ID: | 33350847 |
Disease Name: | pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma |
Sample: | PDAC tissues |
Dysfunction Pattern: | Expression(highly expressed) |
Validated Method: | CCK8//qRT-PCR//Transfection//Western Blot |
Description: | In this research, data mining revealed that upregulated UCA1 occurred in PDAC patients, which meant a high likelihood of a poor prognosis. |
Causality: | Yes |
Causal Description: | Following, UCA1 silencing could notably decrease cell viability and induce cell apoptosis. Further research revealed that UCA1 silencing could induce more cytochrome c localization in the cytosol, which triggered the mitochondrial apoptotic pathway in PDAC cell lines. |
Clinical-realted Application: | In this research, data mining revealed that upregulated UCA1 occurred in PDAC patients, which meant a high likelihood of a poor prognosis. |
