For example, Sathishkumar et al. reported the elevated levels of HOTAIR, metastasis-associated lung adenocarcinoma transcript 1 (MALAT1), myocardial infarction associated transcript (MIAT), X-inactive-specific transcript (Xist), antisense noncoding RNA in the INK4 locus (ANRIL), P21-associated ncRNA DNA damage-activated (PANDA), growth arrest-specific transcript 5 (GAS5), and neighbor of BRCA1 gene 2 (NBR2) in peripheral blood mononuclear cells of patients with T2DM, as compared with controls [36]. Here, CDKN2A is linked to type 2 diabetes mellitus.
