Long non-coding RNA ZEB2-AS1 promotes proliferation and inhibits apoptosis of colon cancer cells via miR-143/bcl-2 axis.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Colon cancer (CC) is the third most common cancer and the fourth leading cause of cancer-associated death in the world. Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) ZEB2-AS1 was reported to be dysregulated and play important roles in multiple human cancers. However, the expression level and functions of ZEB2-AS1 in colon cancer is unknown. Here, we firstly observed that ZEB2-AS1 was significantly upregulated in colon cancer and predicted a poor prognosis. Functional assays showed that silencing ZEB2-AS1 expression remarkably inhibited proliferation, suppressed cell cycle transition while induced apoptosis in CC cells. In addition, miR-143 was demonstrated to act as a tumor suppressor and predicted as a downstream target of ZEB2-AS1 in CC. Furthermore, bcl-2 was identified as a direct target of miR-143 and ZEB2-AS1 could regulate the expression of bcl-2 via miR-143 in CC. A rescue assay indicated that downregulation of miR-143 partly abolished the suppressive effect of ZEB2-AS1 silencing on CC cells proliferation. Collectively, our results revealed that ZEB2-AS1 was upregualted and functioned as an oncogene via regulating miR-143/bcl-2 axis in colon cancer. These findings suggest that ZEB2-AS1 may serve a novel biomarker in the diagnosis and a potential therapeutic target in the treatment of colon cancer.
