In esophageal carcinoma, the expression of the lncRNA AGAP2-AS1 increases, and AGAP2-AS1 can bind to miR-195-5p, resulting in a reduction in the content of FOSL1, a target gene of miR-195-5p, which then promotes the invasion and metastasis of cancer or inhibits apoptosis (100). This evidence concerns the gene FOSL1 and cancer.
