NEAT1 and cervical carcinoma: NEAT1 contributes to cervical cancer progression through multiple pathways, including the NEAT1/miR-133a/SOX4 axis, and the WNT/β-catenin/PDK1 signaling cascade axis (28, 29) both pathways are widely associated with the evasion of apoptosis, which is achieved through the transcriptional activation of genes such as survivin (30, 31).
