LINC00938


Description

The LINC00938 (long intergenic non-protein coding RNA 938) is a ncRNA gene located on chromosome 12.

LINC00938 is a long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) that is located on chromosome 19. It is thought to play a role in regulating gene expression, but its exact function is not yet fully understood. Studies have shown that LINC00938 expression is altered in various cancers, suggesting a potential role in tumorigenesis. Further research is needed to determine the precise function and mechanisms of action of LINC00938.

LINC00938, also known as long intergenic non-coding RNA 938, is a long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) that has been implicated in a variety of cellular processes, including cell proliferation, apoptosis, and differentiation. However, its precise function and mechanism of action remain largely unknown. Studies have shown that LINC00938 expression is dysregulated in a number of human cancers, suggesting a potential role in tumorigenesis. For instance, LINC00938 has been found to be upregulated in hepatocellular carcinoma, colorectal cancer, and gastric cancer, where it promotes tumor growth and metastasis. Conversely, LINC00938 has been shown to be downregulated in some cancers, such as breast cancer and lung cancer, where it may act as a tumor suppressor. Further research is needed to fully elucidate the role of LINC00938 in cancer development and progression.
