MIAT and Mental deterioration: The lncRNA GOMAFU, also known as myocardial infarction-associated transcript (MIAT), is highly expressed in differentiating neural progenitor cells, retinal cells, cerebral cortex pyramidal cells, and the hippocampus, and can participate in several neurodevelopmental processes such as neural and glial cell differentiation, the survival of newborn neurons during cortex formation, and cognitive decline in aging [53,54].
