Objectives: Although dramatic improvements of overall survival has achieved in patients with favourable histology Wilms tumour, disease recurrence is still the main cause of cancer-related death in childhood. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) as oncogenes or tumour suppressors are dysregulated during carcinogenesis. However, the role of lncRNAs in the pathogenesis of Wilms tumour is unknown. Here, an lncRNA LINC00473 signature that functioned as oncogene was identified in Wilms tumour.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
