摘要: Cancer cells preferentially metabolize glucose through aerobic glycolysis, a phenomenon known as the Warburg effect. Emerging evidence has shown that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) act key regulators of multiple cancers. However, it remains largely unexplored whether and how lncRNA regulates metabolism in cancer cells. In this study, we show UCA1 promotes glycolysis bladder cells, UCA1-induced hexokinase 2 (HK2) functions an important mediator process. We further activates mTOR to regulate HK2 both activation STAT3 repression microRNA143. Taken together, these findings provide first plays positive role cell cascade mTOR–STAT3/microRNA143–HK2, reveal novel link between altered
