From: LncRNA PTCSC3 is upregulated in osteoporosis and negatively regulates osteoblast apoptosis

Plasma PTCSC3 was upregulated in osteoporosis and positively correlated with osteoporosis stages. RT-qPCR showed that plasma PTCSC3 levels were significantly increased in each osteoporosis group compared with corresponding control groups. In addition, plasma PTCSC3 levels were obviously increased with the clinical stages increasing. By contrast, no significant differences in plasma PTCSC3 levels were found among the 4 control groups. *, p < 0.01
