Furthermore, LncRNA NCBP2-AS2 was upregulated in lung squamous cell carcinoma samples compared with lung adenocarcinoma samples and adjacent tissues and promoted cell proliferation and metastasis, as well as the invasive and inhibited apoptosis of SCC cells via the TAp63/ZEB1-regulating pathway [40]. This evidence concerns the gene NCBP2 and lung adenocarcinoma.
