MCM3AP and neoplasm: In patients with LUAD, we reported that 7 lncRNAs out of 14 (HAGLR, ADAMANTS9-AS2, LINC00261, C14orf132, LINC00968, LINC00312, TP73-AS1) were downregulated in tumor in comparison to normal lung tissue; two lncRNAs were upregulated (LINC00673 AFAP1-AS1) and five lncRNAs (LOC344887, SOX2-OT, MCM3AP-AS1, TP53TG1, LOC730101) were statistically insignificant (Table 3).
