ZNF667-AS1 suppressed cell growth of PC cells, tumor growth of mice and DTX resistance to PC cells and exogenously high ZNF667-AS1 expression in tumor-derived exosomes destabilized TGFBR1 mRNA and reduce TGFBR1 expression through interacting with U2AF1, thus resulting in attenuated Treg expansion, which was related to DTX resistance. The gene discussed is ZNF667; the disease is pachyonychia congenita.
