MIR9-2HG and central nervous system cancer: Moreover, LINC00461 knockdown decreased expression levels of microRNA miR-9 and flanking genes MEF2C and TMEM161B. Taken together, our results demonstrate that LINC00461 is important for glioma progression affecting cell proliferation, migration and invasion via MAPK/ERK, PI3K/AKT, and possibly other signaling pathways.
