LINC-PINT and neoplasm: When LINC-PINT overexpressing HCT116 and A549 cells were injected subcutaneously into two different types of immunocompromised mice (nude and BALB/c-Rag2/‐IL2cc), they presented a decreased ability to form tumors (Fig. 2a and Additional file 1: Figure S2E), indicating that LINC-PINT inhibits the aggressiveness of the tumor cells.
