As shown in Figure 7A, the invasion ability of glioma cells in the lncRNA NKX3-1 overexpression group was significantly higher than that in the control group (P <0.05), whereas the invasion ability of glioma cells in the lncRNA NKX3-1 knockdown group was significantly lower than that in the control group and lncRNA NKX3-1 overexpression group (P <0.05). Here, NKX3-1 is linked to central nervous system cancer.
