The lncRNA CCAT2 (colon cancer-associated transcript 2) transcript maps to the highly conserved 8q24.21 region encompassing rs6983267; CCAT2 plays a crucial role in promoting tumor metastasis, growth, and chromosomal instability in colon [13], lung [14], breast [15], and gastric [16] cancers. This evidence concerns the gene CCAT2 and neoplasm.
