For instance, Zhang et al. demonstrated that upregulation of the lncRNA, EWSAT1, promoted cell proliferation, invasion, and EMT in CRC (Zhang R. et al., 2018), Sun et al. demonstrated that YAP1-induced MALAT1 enhanced EMT and angiogenesis by sponging miR-126-5p in CRC (Sun et al., 2018). Here, YAP1 is linked to colorectal carcinoma.
