Metastasis-associated lung adenocarcinoma transcript-1 (MALAT1) is a lncRNA that was initially found to be overexpressed in early NSCLC [91], where it can regulate downstream target molecules by directly binding to miRNAs and thereby enhancing cell proliferation, metastasis, and invasion, thus fueling cancer progression. This evidence concerns the gene MALAT1 and non-small cell lung carcinoma.
