MALAT1 and diabetic kidney disease: Other lncRNAs such as metastasis associated lung adenocarcinoma transcript 1 (MALAT1), plasmacytoma variant translocation 1 (PVT1), antisense noncoding RNA gene at the INK4 locus (ANRIL), and Erb-B2 receptor tyrosine kinase 4-immunoreactivity (Erbb4-IR) have been implicated in the modulation of ECM proteins and profibrotic factors within DKD.
