In addition to circRNAs, the long non-coding RNA, metastasis-associated lung adenocarcinoma transcript-1 (MALAT1), can also adsorb miR-124 and promote non-small cell lung cancer [32,33], cervical cancer [34], and nasopharyngeal carcinoma [35], and is known to promote malignancy through increased expression of miR-124 target genes. Here, MALAT1 is linked to nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
