Several of the detected differentially expressed lncRNAs were well described members of cancer-related pathways, including tumor suppressors and oncogenes (e.g. MEG3 [55], Xist [67], [68], MALAT1 [19], [42], H19 [39], [69], GAS5 [40], and HOTAIR [25], [70]). This evidence concerns the gene XIST and neoplasm.
