Intriguingly, it is understood that overexpressing LncRNA NEAT1 conducts breast cancer cells towards apoptosis by downregulating the cell cycle-related genes, such as cyclin D1 and cyclin-dependent kinase 4 (CDK4), and promoting the apoptotic-associated gene expression such as Bcl2-associated agonists of cell death (BAD), cysteinyl aspartate proteases (CASP9) and collagen type XVII a 1 (COL18A) [128]. This evidence concerns the gene NEAT1 and breast cancer.
