Abstract
We found expression of the snoRNA SNORA23, which mediates sequence-specific pseudouridylation of ribosomal RNAs, to be increased in human PDAC tissues compared with non-tumor tissues, and levels to correlate with tumor invasion grade and patient survival time. SNORA23 increases expression of SYNE2, possibly through modulation of ribosome biogenesis, to promote PDAC cell survival and invasion, and growth and metastasis of xenograft tumors in mice.
