In the same context, the imprinted lncRNA KCNQ1OT1 (LIT1) is dysregulated in human tumors (Nakano et al., 2006), and seems to be related to chemoresistance in tongue squamous cell carcinoma and poor prognosis (Guo et al., 2014). The gene discussed is KCNQ1OT1; the disease is tongue squamous cell carcinoma.
