LINC00565 promotes the progression of colorectal cancer by upregulating EZH2.

ABSTRACT: The present study aimed to illustrate the role of LINC00565 in aggravating colorectal cancer (CRC) by targeting enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2). The relative levels of LINC00565 and EZH2 in CRC tissues, based on their Tumor-Node-Metastasis stage and tumor size, were detected by reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction. The diagnostic value of LINC00565 in CRC was assessed by depicting receiver operating characteristic curves. Pearson's correlation test was applied to analyze the expression correlation between LINC00565 and EZH2 in CRC tissues. The transfection efficacy of three LINC00565 small interfering RNAs was examined in CRC HCT116 and SW480 cell lines. After knockdown of LINC00565, the proliferative and migratory abilities of CRC cells were detected by Cell Cou
