FTX and hepatocellular carcinoma: In the study by Liu F, et al., Lnc-FTX acts as a tumor suppressor gene in HCC by inhibiting epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and invasion of HCC cells through the miR-374a-5p/Wnt/β-catenin axis 21 and regulating the M1/M2 polarization of Kupffer cells 22, and inhibits cell proliferation by binding with MCM2 23.
