Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNA) are unusual in that they don’t encode proteins like normal RNA. Yet they do play a role in regulating cellular functions and interest cancer researchers.  Now, researchers at The MD Anderson Cancer Center have found that a specific lncRNA called CCAT2 regulates cancer metabolism both in vivo and in vitro. The data was presented at the 2015 American Association for Cancer … Continue reading Researchers identify long non-coding RNA which modulates colorectal cancer metabolism.
