LINC00839 and nasopharyngeal carcinoma: Through reanalyzing these microarray data, LINC00839 was found to be highly expressed in LA-NPC (p = 0.0028, fold change = 1.47) versus normal nasopharynx tissues as well as in LA-NPC developed with metastasis (p = 0.0327, fold change = 1.94) versus nonmetastatic group (Fig. 1A).
