Additionally, using TOP/FOP (TCL/LEF-Firefly luciferase) Flash, RT-PCR, and western blot assays, we showed that silencing MALAT1 downregulates β-catenin expression, dysregulates the canonical Wnt signaling pathway, and consequently attenuates HCC tumorsphere formation efficiency, with concurrent reduction in CD133+ and CD90+ HCC cell population, and inhibits tumor growth in SK-Hep1-bearing mice. The gene discussed is PROM1; the disease is neoplasm.
