Platelet‐derived growth factor BB (PDGF‐BB) stimulates Malat1 expression in airway smooth muscle cells, Malat1 interacts with miR‐150 by a ceRNA mechanism, significantly enhances the essential translation initiation factor, eIF4E, and Akt signaling, promotes airway smooth muscle cells proliferation and migration, airway remodeling in asthma.70 This evidence concerns the gene MALAT1 and asthma.
