To date, only a few lncRNAs (including MALAT1, HOTAIR, H19, MEG3, GAS5, ANRIL, and SOX2OT etc.)have been reported to be dysregulated and functionally characterized in lung cancer and most of the studies were based on microarray expression data [40, 44, 45]. This evidence concerns the gene CDKN2B-AS1 and lung carcinoma.
