KIF9-AS1


Description

The KIF9-AS1 (KIF9 antisense RNA 1) is a ncRNA gene located on chromosome 3.

KIF9-AS1 is a long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) that is located on chromosome 14q32.33. It is approximately 2,000 nucleotides in length and is transcribed from the antisense strand of the KIF9 gene. KIF9-AS1 has been shown to be dysregulated in a variety of human cancers, including gastric cancer, colorectal cancer, and lung cancer. It is upregulated in these cancers and has been shown to promote cell proliferation, invasion, and tumorigenesis. The exact mechanisms by which KIF9-AS1 exerts its effects in cancer are not fully understood, but it is thought to act as a competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) to regulate the expression of microRNAs, such as miR-145 and miR-129, which are known to be tumor suppressors.

KIF9-AS1 is an lncRNA that has been shown to be dysregulated in a variety of human cancers. It is upregulated in gastric cancer and promotes cell proliferation and invasion. It is also upregulated in colorectal cancer and promotes tumorigenesis. KIF9-AS1 may act as a ceRNA to regulate the expression of microRNAs, such as miR-145 and miR-129, which are known to be tumor suppressors. However, the specific mechanisms by which KIF9-AS1 exerts its effects in cancer are not fully understood.
