In addition, Zhang et al. demonstrated that the interaction between LBX2-AS1 and RNA-binding protein heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein C (HNRNPC) strengthens the migration capacity and the progression of the epithelial-mesenchymal transition in ESCC cells by enhancing the stability of zinc finger E-box binding homeobox (ZEB) 1/2 mRNA, which has been implicated in the reinforcement of cell invasion capabilities [70–72]. Here, LBX2 is linked to esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.
