Yang et al showed that LINC00483 binds to miR‐144, upregulates homeobox A10 (HOXA10), and subsequently upregulates MMP‐2 and MMP‐9 and to modulate expression of EMT markers (e.g., Vimentin, N‐cadherin, and E‐cadherin); this was associated with promotion of migration of lung cancer cells and a reduction in radiosensitivity.102. Here, MMP9 is linked to lung cancer.
