EBLN3P and liver cancer: Long non-coding RNAs (LncRNAs) with more than 200 bases in length have been widely acknowledged as regulators for tumor initiation and development.8 In specific, endogenous bornavirus-like nucleoprotein (EBLN3P), a newly discovered lncRNA located on chromosome 9: 37,079,935–37,086,874 forward strand,9 is highly-expressed in several cancers, such as OS,10 liver cancer,11 and colorectal cancer,12 and alteration of its expression may pose influences on tumor progression.
