Prognostic significance of long non-coding RNA PCAT-1 expression in human hepatocellular carcinoma.

CONCLUSIONS: Our data suggested that the increased expression of PCAT-1 was associated with advanced clinical parameters and poor overall survival of HCC patients, indicating that PCAT-1 up-regulation may serve as a novel biomarker of poor prognosis in HCC patients.
