Pseudogene MSTO2P is found to be implicated in several diseases including lung cancer32, colorectal cancer33, etc. MSTO2P could function as a miR-128-3p sponge in non-small cell lung cancer cells (NSCLC), and MSTO2P/miR-128-3p to regulate coptisine sensitivity of NSCLC cells via TGF-β pathway. Here, TGFB1 is linked to non-small cell lung carcinoma.
