Characteristics

MEG3 is an imprinted gene maternally expressed in humans that encodes a long non-coding RNA of ∼1700 nucleotides. [1] MEG3 is located at 14q32.3. Although a location for a tumor suppressor gene has been hypothesized in this region because it is frequently lost in cholangiocarcinoma or neuroblastoma, no protein-coding gene has been identified so far at this site. [2] There are 12 different MEG3 gene transcripts, generated by alternative splicing. They contain the common exons 1-3 and exons 8-10, but each uses one or more exons 4-7 in a different combination in the middle. MEG3 isoform expression patterns are tissue and cell type specific.[3]

Function

MEG3 functions an important role in the regulation of proper cell growth and embryo development and therefore may be a putative tumor suppressor gene, because one of its functions is to activate p53 and inhibit cell proliferation. [3] MEG3 can also control gene expression at imprinted loci through recruitment of the polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2). [4]

Regulation

Through studies, a functional tissue-specific mechanism of regulation of MEG3 expression via microRNA-29a-dependent regulation of promoter methylation was reported. Overexpression of mir-29a increased expression of MEG3. [5]

Expression

The aberrant expression of this lncRNA has been linked to hepatoblastoma development.[5] Microarray analysis revealedMEG3 was downregulated by 210-fold in in malignant hepatocytes relative to expression in non-malignant hepatocytes. MEG3 expression was markedly reduced in four human hepatocellular cancer (HCC) cell lines compared with normal hepatocytes by real-time PCR. RNA In situhybridization showed intense cytoplasmic expression of MEG3 in non-neoplastic liver with absent or very weak expression in HCC tissues. [5]
