Increasing evidence shows that the EMT plays a pivotal role in metastasis processes of PC, and a correlation between LINC00930 and EMT was found in the TCGA database, meanwhile, western blot analysis showed that the overexpression of LINC00930 led to an increase in the epithelial marker E-cadherin, and suppressed expression of the mesenchymal markers, N-cadherin and Vimentin, at the protein level (Fig. 2F). The gene discussed is VIM; the disease is pachyonychia congenita.
