Annotated Information

Name

LNCSRLR:lncRNA sorafenib resistance in renal cell carcinoma associated

lncRNA-SRLR[1]

Characteristics

LncRNA-SRLR is located on chromosome 3 in humans and is composed of 2 exons with a poly (A) tail and has a full length of 663 nt, as determined via a rapid amplification of cDNA ends assay.[1]

Cellular Localization

The subcellular distribution assay reveals that lncRNA-SRLR is predominately located in the nucleus.[1]

Function

LncRNA-SRLR knockdown sensitizes nonresponsive RCC cells to sorafenib treatment, whereas the overexpression of lncRNA-SRLR confers sorafenib resistance to responsive RCC cells. Mechanistically, lncRNA-SRLR directly binds to NF-κB and promotes IL-6 transcription, leading to the activation of STAT3 and the development of sorafenib tolerance. A STAT3 inhibitor and IL-6-receptor antagonist both restore the response to sorafenib treatment. Moreover, a clinical investigation demonstrates that high levels of lncRNA-SRLR correlates with poor responses to sorafenib therapy in RCC patients.[1]

Expression

expression of LNCSRLR[1].

LncRNA-SRLR is preferentially upregulated in RCCs(Renal cell carcinoma) with inherent sorafenib resistance.[1]

Diseases

Renal cell carcinoma[1]
