{"type": "root", "children": [{"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\nSNORA42, a small nucleolar RNA, has emerged as an oncogenic driver in a variety of human cancers. In non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), SNORA42 is frequently overexpressed through genomic amplification—independent of its host gene—and its heightened expression correlates with increased cell proliferation, colony formation, and reduced apoptosis in a p53‐dependent manner. In parallel, systematic evaluations in colorectal cancer have underscored the clinical importance and biomarker potential of dysregulated snoRNAs, including SNORA42, in tumorigenesis."}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_f", "ref": "1"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "\n"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "\n\n"}, {"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\nIn prostate cancer, SNORA42 is up-regulated—further induced by dihydrotestosterone—and contributes to enhanced cellular proliferation, migration, invasion, and resistance to apoptosis, with its overexpression predicting poorer outcomes in metastatic contexts.
