Nuclear enriched abundant transcript 1 (NEAT1) is a polyadenylated, unspliced ncRNA, which is abundantly transcribed in several cancers (bladder, lung, and breast) and promotes their development and progression; the same locus also encodes a short noncoding RNA, TncRNA (trophoblast-derived non-coding RNA), that originates from the 3’ end of NEAT1 and is exclusively expressed in trophoblasts [71]. This evidence concerns the gene NEAT1 and cancer.
