Metastasis-associated lung adenocarcinoma transcript-1 (MALAT1) promotes colorectal cancer cell proliferation, migration, metastasis, and angiogenesis by targeting several genes and signaling pathways, including WNT/β-catenin, Snail, PI3K/AKT/mTOR, PERK/ATF4 [20, 21]. The gene discussed is MALAT1; the disease is colorectal cancer.
