Significant existing literature has provided verification indicating the involvement of lncRNAs in cancer biology, with lncRNAs exhibiting stimulated levels in a variety of malignancies, highlighting their usefulness as biomarkers and therapeutic targets.10, 22, 23 Thus, the present study aimed to explore the effects of the novel lncRNA LINC01305 on the cell invasion, migration and EMT of CC through the PI3K/Akt signalling pathway by targeting TNXB. Here, AKT1 is linked to cancer.
