Emerging Role of Long Non-Coding RNAs in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer: Progress and Prospects

Weijun Wu, Jieqing Zhao and Yongsheng Wang

Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), accounts for approximately 80-85% of all lung cancer cases, is the most common cause of cancer-related death worldwide. With the advances of high-throughput sequencing, accumulating evidence suggested that the long non-coding RNA molecules, with transcripts larger than 200 nucleotides, have important roles in multiple biological processes in NSCLC. In this review, we will highlight the emerging roles of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in NSCLC, discussing both onco-lncRNAs and tum
