Annotated Information

Name

LINC02231:long intergenic non-protein coding RNA 2231

RP11-766N7.4 [1]

Characteristics

Long noncoding RNA RP11-766N7.4 is located on the reversed strand in 12q14.3 region with a length of 447 bps [1].

Function

RP11-766N7.4 expression is negatively correlated with lymph node metastasis and tumor stage, and RP11-766N7.4 inhibites cellular migration and invasion by suppressing EMT (Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition) process [1].

Expression

RP11-766N7.4 is remarkably down-regulated in Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma(ESCC) tissue samples compared with the paired adjacent tissues [1].

Diseases

Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma [1]
