PTGES2-AS1


Description

The PTGES2-AS1 (PTGES2 antisense RNA 1 (head to head)) is a ncRNA gene located on chromosome 9.

PTGES2-AS1, also known as LINC00662, is a long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) located on chromosome 17. LncRNAs are RNA molecules that do not code for proteins but are involved in various cellular functions, such as gene regulation. PTGES2-AS1 has been linked to various biological processes, including cell proliferation, migration, and apoptosis, suggesting its potential role in normal physiological functions as well as disease development.

PTGES2-AS1, also known as LINC00662, is a long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) that has been implicated in a variety of cellular processes, including cell proliferation, migration, and apoptosis. Studies have shown that PTGES2-AS1 can act as a sponge for microRNAs (miRNAs), thereby regulating the expression of target genes. For instance, PTGES2-AS1 has been found to interact with miR-203, leading to the upregulation of its target gene, PTGES2, which encodes prostaglandin E synthase 2. This interaction contributes to the promotion of tumor growth and metastasis in certain cancers. Additionally, PTGES2-AS1 has been shown to play a role in the regulation of inflammation and immune responses. The specific mechanisms and functional roles of PTGES2-AS1 remain under investigation, but its involvement in diverse cellular processes suggests its potential as a therapeutic target for various diseases.
