Previous findings have also indicated that MALAT1 induces epithelial-mesenchymal transition in breast, cervical, colorectal, esophageal, and prostate cancer cells as well as in non-transformed cell lines, namely ARPE-19 cells, HK-2 cells, and lens epithelial cells [68, 69, 70, 71, 72, 73, 74, 75, 76]. Here, MALAT1 is linked to Familial prostate cancer.
