lncRNA and small cell lung cancer / 国际肿瘤学杂志

ABSTRACT

The incidence and mortality of lung cancer rank first, and small cell lung cancer (SCLC) accounts for about 15% of lung cancer cases. In recent years, it has been found that long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) (TUG1, CCAT2, PVT1, HOTTIP and HOTAIR) plays a significant role in the development of SCLC. lncRNA can regulate the expression of related genes at the transcriptional, posttranscriptional and epigenetic levels, and it can infulence proliferation, invasion, metastasis and chemotherapy resistance of SCLC.
