Promoter of lncRNA MORT is aberrantly methylated in colorectal cancer.
Nucleosides, Nucleotides & Nucleic Acids 2024 April 16
Aberrant DNA methylation plays essential roles in the colorectal cancer (CRC) carcinogenesis and has been demonstrated as a promising marker for cancer early detection. In this project, methylation status of the MORT promoter was studied in CRC and their marginal tissues using qMSP assay. Furthermore, we investigated the molecular function of MORT in CRC progression using computational analysis. The results showed a high methylation level of MORT promoter in CRC tissues. By in silico analysis, we found that MORT downregulation could promote the proliferation of CRC cells via sponging of has-miR-574-5p and has-miR-31-5p , and alteration of their targets expression pattern such as MYOCD and FOXP2 . In conclusion, based on our results, promoter hypermethylation of MORT might be considered as a potential biomarker for CRC detection.
