DLGAP1-AS1
The cancerogenic effects of DLGAP1-AS1 in HCC cells could be effectuated via activating Wnt/β-catenin pathway by positively regulating CDK8 and LRP6, downstream genes of miR-26a/b-5p.[1]

Function
DLGAP1-AS1 in facilitating HCC progression and EMT in vitro and in vivo.[1]
Regulation
DLGAP1-AS1 serve as a molecular sponge to sequester the HCC-inhibitory miRNAs, miR-26a-5p and miR-26b-5p, thus enhancing the level of an oncogenic cytokine IL-6, which could activate JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway and reciprocally elevate the transcriptional activity of DLGAP1-AS1, thus forming a positive feedback loop.[1] The cancerogenic effects of DLGAP1-AS1 in HCC cells could be effectuated via activating Wnt/β-catenin pathway by positively regulating CDK8 and LRP6, downstream genes of miR-26a/b-5p.[1]
Expression
DLGAP1-AS1 was shown to be upregulated in HCC cell lines and capable to promote HCC progression and EMT.[1]
Diseases
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC)[1]
