MALAT1 and cutaneous melanoma: Although several lncRNAs have been reported to be involved in the pathogenesis of melanoma, such as BANCR, SLNCR1, CASC15, MALAT1 and so on [12], genome-wide systematic analysis for the predictive value of lncRNAs in prognosis prediction for cutaneous melanoma is lacking because of limited available lncRNA expression profiles in cutaneous melanoma.
