It has been reported that inhibition of SNHG7 could promote tumor growth and the EMT phenotype via upregulation of the targets of miR-34a, including Notch1 (33).Therefore, lncRNAs such as HOXA-AS3 may modulate EMT in various types of cancer, including BC, by regulating the expression of Notch1. The gene discussed is PDS5B; the disease is cancer.
