ZEB1 and neoplasm: This lncRNA promoted the transcription of zinc finger E-box-binding homeobox 1 (ZEB1) and its EMT-associated downstream targets by recruiting the transcription factor Y-box protein (YB1) to the ZEB1 promoter and elevated expressions of lncRNA-BX111887 were associated with tumor progression, late TNM stage, metastasis and lymphatic invasion in PDAC patients [49].
