LncRNAs are crucial regulators of various diseases including cancers.5 LncRNAs are long noncoding RNA with over 200nts without protein‐coding functions.6 Recently, altered lncRNAs are recognized in various cancers.7, 8, 9 For example, lncRNAMEG3 can repress gastric cancer proliferation through regulating p53.10 LncRNACPS1‐IT1 can inhibit colorectal cancer cell invasion and metastasis.11 Upregulated lncRNA SNHG1 can contribute to lung cancer development through sponging miR‐101‐3p and activating Wnt signaling.12 LncRNA‐HIT promotes NSCLC progression by regulating ZEB1.13 This evidence concerns the gene ZEB1 and cancer.
