Name

MIAT: myocardial infarction associated transcript ((Ishii 2006)).

Characteristics

MIAT, was specifically up-regulated both in the plasma fraction of whole blood and aqueous humor of cataract patients [1].

Cellular Localization

In epithelial cell.[1].

Function

Figure 1.LncRNA‐MIAT is shown as a cataract‐specific biomarker. [1].

MIAT knockdown could affect the proliferation,apoptosis and migration of Human lens epithelial cells (HLECs) upon oxidative stress [1].

MIAT acted as a ceRNA, and formed a feedback loop with Akt and miR-150-5p to regulate HLEC function [1].

Regulation

MTT assay revealed that MIAT knockdown significantly decreased the HLEC viability.[1].

Diseases

  • Neuroendocrine prostate cancer (NEPC)

Expression

LncRNA-MIAT was significantly up-regulated in cataractous lenses [1].
