In line with this, the expression of five lncRNAs associated with CAD has been analysed in coronary tissue with and without atherosclerosis including cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 2B antisense RNA 1 (ANRIL), myocardial infarction associated transcript (MIAT), metastasis associated lung adenocarcinoma transcript 1 (MALAT1), KCNQ1 opposite strand/antisense transcript 1 (KCNQ1OT1), and HIF1A antisense RNA 2 (aHIF) although only three of them, ANRIL, MIAT, and MALAT1 displayed differences between atherosclerotic and non-atherosclerotic arteries [110]. This evidence concerns the gene MALAT1 and coronary artery disorder.
