LINC00526 and glioma: Among the mRNAs whose expressions are correlated with LINC00526, we noted AXL, which is a receptor tyrosine kinase and has critical oncogenic roles in many cancers including glioma.36, 37 As shown in Figure 4A, AXL mRNA expression was significantly inversely correlated with that of LINC00526 in glioma tissues (r = −0.4249, P = 0.0022).
