A role for HULC in the regulation of EMT has been observed in HCC where it functions as a ceRNA for miRNAs (miR-122, miR-200a-3p, miR-372, and miR-488) [29,30,133,134] to mediate EMT via upregulation of Snail [135], ZEB1 [29], or ADAM9 [30], and this lncRNA has also been reported to induce EMT in gastric cancer [28]. This evidence concerns the gene ADAM9 and hepatocellular carcinoma.
