Previous studies have proved that long noncoding RNA H19 indicates a poor prognosis of colorectal cancer and promotes tumor growth by recruiting and binding to eIF4A3 [4]; LncRNA MALAT1 promotes tumor growth and metastasis in colorectal cancer through binding to SFPQ and releasing oncogene PTBP2 from SFPQ/PTBP2 complex [5]; Another important lncRNA, HOTAIR, could regulate polycomb-dependent chromatin modification and is associated with poor prognosis in CRC. The gene discussed is PTBP2; the disease is colorectal carcinoma.
