In addition, the alterations in lactate production, glucose uptake and the enzyme expression induced by Ftx can be counteracted by downregulating the expression of PPARγ 28; (2) lncRNA UCA1 promotes glycolysis by upregulating hexokinase 2 (HK2) in cervical cancer 29; (3) lncRNA-p23154 suppresses the expression of miR-378a-3p, and miR-378a-3p can promote Glut1-mediated glycolysis in oral squamous cell cancer by binding and inhibiting Glut1 30; and (4) lncRNA CRYBG3 increases the expression of lactate dehydrogenase A (LDHA), and LDHA promotes glycolysis in lung cancer. This evidence concerns the gene HK2 and lung cancer.
