The hnRNP P2 (FUS/TLS) is highly expressed in cervical cancer as well as in SiHa and HeLa cells, dependently from the activation of XIST lncRNA/miR-200a axis, and induces the epithelial mesenchymal transition phenotype and proliferation while inhibiting apoptosis in cervical cancer cells (Zhu et al., 2018). This evidence concerns the gene XIST and cervical carcinoma.
