Summary
{"type": "root", "children": [{"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\n FAM201A is a long noncoding RNA that plays diverse roles in both malignant and non‐malignant conditions. In several types of lung cancers—including non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), lung squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC), lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) and triple‐negative breast cancer (TNBC)—FAM201A is frequently upregulated and associated with aggressive tumor behaviors such as enhanced proliferation, migration, invasion, metastasis, and resistance to radiotherapy. For instance, in NSCLC, FAM201A acts as a competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) by sponging miR‑370 to elevate EGFR and HIF‑1α levels, thereby promoting radioresistance."}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_f", "ref": "1"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": " In LSCC, silencing FAM201A reduces cell proliferation and metastatic potential through a mechanism involving miR‑101 and subsequent regulation of Vimentin"}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_f", "ref": "2"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": ", while in TNBC FAM201A—transcriptionally activated by TCF3—functions by sequestering miR‑186‑5p to upregulate TNKS1BP1."}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_f", "ref": "3"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": " Similar oncogenic mechanisms are observed in LUAD, where FAM201A contributes to tumor development by targeting miR‑7515 to promote GLO1 expression."}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_f", "ref": "4"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": " Conversely, in noncancerous conditions such as osteonecrosis of the femoral head, FAM201A is downregulated and correlates with disease development"}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_f", "ref": "5"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": ", and its decreased expression is also associated with an increased susceptibility to atrial fibrillation through a ceRNA network involving miR‑33a‑3p and RAC3."}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_f", "ref": "6"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": " Collectively, these findings indicate that FAM201A modulates key cellular processes through microRNA sponging and ceRNA mechanisms in a context‐dependent manner, making it a promising biomarker and potential therapeutic target in oncology and other clinical settings.\n "}]}, {"type": "rg", "children": [{"type": "r", "ref": 1, "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "A-M Liu, Y Zhu, Z-W Huang, et al.
