MEG3 and ovarian cancer: LncRNAs, capable of regulating various pathological and physiological processes by functioning as oncogenes or antioncogenes, have been documented to function in different stages of ovarian cancer, thereby indicating their prognostic and therapeutic significance.6 LncRNAs have been confirmed to play an essential role in EMT in gynaecologic cancers.5 Specifically, overexpression of lncRNA DNM3OS, MEG3, and MIAT has been implicated in ovarian cancer.7 According to the bioinformatics results in our study, LINC00176 was revealed to be a differentially expressed lncRNA in ovarian cancer.
