LINC00675
Linc00675: A Pivotal Player in Cancer and Neurological Disorders
Description
Linc00675 is a long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) that plays a crucial role in various biological processes, including gene regulation, cellular differentiation, and cell cycle control. It is located on chromosome 1q44 and is highly conserved across different species.
Associated Diseases
Linc00675 has been implicated in the development and progression of several diseases, including:
- Cancer: Linc00675 overexpression is associated with increased tumor growth, metastasis, and resistance to therapy in various cancers, including breast cancer, lung cancer, and hepatocellular carcinoma.
- Neurological disorders: Linc00675 dysregulation has been linked to neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease. It affects neuronal development, synaptic plasticity, and neuronal survival.
Did you Know ?
Studies have shown that patients with higher levels of linc00675 in their tumor cells exhibit a significantly shorter overall survival time compared to those with lower levels.
