Some important lncRNAs studied over the years in thyroid cancer include Nuclear Paraspeckle Assembly Transcript 1 (NEAT1), HOTAIR, GAS8 Antisense RNA 1 (GAS8-AS1), Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma Susceptibility Candidate 3 (PTCSC3), Maternally Expressed 3 (MEG3), BRAF-Activated Non-Protein Coding RNA (BANCR), cancer susceptibility candidate 2 (CASC2), and Metastasis Associated Lung Adenocarcinoma Transcript 1 (MALAT1) [101]. The gene discussed is BANCR; the disease is thyroid gland carcinoma.
