MALAT1 has also been demonstrated to promote EMT in ccRCC cells by functioning as a competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) and preventing miRNA-mediated degradation of the transcript-encoding zinc finger E box binding homeobox 2 (ZEB2), a transcriptional regulator of E-cadherin [14]. The gene discussed is ZEB2; the disease is nonpapillary renal cell carcinoma.
