In recent years, several lncRNAs, including taurine upregulated gene 1 (TUG1) [10], second chromosome locus associated with prostate-1(SChLAP1) [11], colorectal neoplasia differentially expressed (CRNDE) [12], and castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) [13], have been reported to regulate tumor cell growth and progression by altering the balance between cell proliferation and apoptosis. The gene discussed is TUG1; the disease is neoplasm.
