Lnc01420 is upregulated in pancreatic cancer and facilitates pancreatic cancer cell proliferation, metastasis and EMT, and lnc01420 can act as a sponge of miR-494-3p to relieve the inhibition of MYC expression and promotes KRAS gene transcription through the lnc01420/miR-494-3p/MYC regulatory axis [32]. This evidence concerns the gene KRAS and familial pancreatic carcinoma.
