LncRNA EPB41L4A-AS1, a p53-regulated gene, has been found to be associated with a variety of human cancers, including breast cancer, colorectal cancer, liver cancer and glioblastomas (Deva Magendhra Rao et al., 2019; He et al., 2019; Liao et al., 2019; Zan and Li, 2019). This evidence concerns the gene EPB41L4A and cancer.
