MALAT1 and colorectal cancer: In colorectal cancer, the lncRNA MALAT1 was found to promote angiogenesis and the EMT process by sponging miR-126-5p to increase VEGFA, Slug, and Twist expression, and LINC00958 was positively regulated by YAP1, which promoted the transcription of LINC00958 by forming a complex with β-catenin/transcription factor 4 that bound to the MALAT1 promoter [143].
