UFC1 and colorectal carcinoma: In this report, we identified a novel lincRNA, termed linc-UFC1, and we showed that altered linc-UFC1 expression could interact with the mRNA-stabilizing protein HuR to increase levels of β-catenin in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells.16 Despite the above findings, linc-UFC1 expression has not been investigated in CRC.
