THOR is a conserved testis lncRNA involved in multiple human carcinomas.

Annotated Information

Name

THORLNC: testis associated oncogenic lncRNA (HGNC nomenclature).

Characteristics

THORLNC has a chromosomal locaton of 2q14.2 (HGNC data). Lnc-THOR is exclusively expressed in testis and human cancers [1].

Function

THORLNC has been reported to be involved in more than one cancer. In one study, THOR knockout produced fertilization defects in zebrafish and also conferred a resistance to melanoma onset [2]. THORLNC expression was also found to be essential for human osteosarcoma OS cell growth and therefore Lnc-THOR could be a novel therapeutic target and/or diagnosis marker for human OS [1]. THOR expression was also seen to promote Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) cell growth in vitro and in vivo and can be employed as a therapeutic target [3]. Moreover, knockdown of IGF2BP1-bound nc-THOR deplets IGF2BP1-dependent mRNAs, causing inhibition on A431 cell survival and proliferation and as a result IGF2BP1 silencing or knockout inhibited A431 tumor xenograft growth in mice [4].

An ultraconserved lncRNA promotes oncogenesis [2].

Diseases

  • Melanoma [2]
  • Osteosarcoma (OS) [1]
  • Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) [3]
  • Skin squamous cell carcinoma (SSCC) [4]

Expression

Lnc-THOR expression is essential for human OS cell growth. Lnc-THOR could be a novel therapeutic target and/or diagnosis marker for human OS [1].THOR expression promotes RCC cell growth in vitro and in vivo. THOR could be a novel and important therapeutic target for human RCC [3].
