Taurine-upregulated gene 1 (TUG1) promotes the expression of CEMIP and accelerates EMT and metastasis of CRC cells by inhibiting the expression of miR-600.[39] Furthermore, in vitro experiments have shown that overexpression of cancer susceptibility 19 (CASC19) can enhance the proliferation and migration of CRC cells with the upregulation of CEMIP and EMT markers.[40]. Here, TUG1 is linked to cancer.
