Long non-coding RNA SNHG16 promotes cell growth and metastasis in ovarian cancer.

CONCLUSIONS: SNHG16 was highly expressed in ovarian cancer, and was correlated with staging, distant metastasis and poor prognosis of ovarian cancer. SNHG16 may activate phosphorylation of AKT and upregulate the expression of MMP9 to promote cell proliferation, invasion and migration of ovarian cancer. PMID: 29461589 [PubMed - in process]
