    1. URG11 served an oncogenic role in the development of prostate cancer cells.

    2. URG11 is critical for the proliferation, migration, and invasion in prostate cancer cells
      Title: URG11 Regulates Prostate Cancer Cell Proliferation, Migration, and Invasion.
    3. silencing of URG11 altered the expression levels of cell cycleassociated genes, epithelialmesenchymal transitionassociated genes, and RhoA and ROCK1 protein levels. Thus, the results of the present study suggest that URG11 may be a potential therapeutic target, which may be important to inhibit the development and progression of prostatic hyperplasia.

    4. the study reported here provided evidence that URG11 downregulation suppresses proliferation, invasion, and beta-catenin expression in NSCLC cells. Our study uncovered a novel role for URG11 in NSCLC progression; thus, URG11 may be a novel potential therapeutic target for NSCLC.

    8. Data suggest that URG11 contributes to gastric cancer growth and metastasis at least partially through activation of beta-catenin signalling pathway.
      Title: URG11 promotes gastric cancer growth and invasion by activation of beta-catenin signalling pathway.
    9. URG11 mediates hypoxia-induced epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition through the suppression of E-cadherin and the activation of the beta-catenin/T-cell factor pathway.
      Title: URG11 mediates hypoxia-induced epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition by modulation of E-cadherin and beta-catenin.
    10. beta-catenin is activated by HBxAg, in part, through the upregulated expression of the HBxAg effector URG11; URG11 stimulates the beta-catenin promoter and hepatocellular growth and survival
      Title: Enhanced cell survival of Hep3B cells by the hepatitis B x antigen effector, URG11, is associated with upregulation of beta-catenin.

    RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

    These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

    These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
