“…A variety of studies demonstrated that TUG1 is highly expressed in multiple cancers, and it has been found to contribute to carcinogenesis in laryngocarcinoma (Zhuang, Liu, & Wu, 2019), osteosarcoma (Yu, Hu, et al, 2019), multiple myeloma (Liu, Wang, & Liu, 2019), pancreatic cancer (Hui et al, 2019), melanoma (Wang, Liu, Ren, Wang, & Liu, 2019), and OC (Fan, Li, et al, 2019). Previous studies have illustrated that TUG1 promotes cancer progression by regulating LRG1 secretion through modulating tumor growth factor‐β pathway (Fan, Li, et al, 2019), and by promoting cell proliferation and invasion through regulating WNT/β‐catenin pathway (Liu et al, 2018). Additionally, TUG1 promotes cancer progression through accelerating cell proliferation and inhibiting cell apoptosis (Kuang, Zhang, Hua, Dong, & Li, 2016; Li, Chen, Zhang, & Liu, 2018; Li, Zhang, Liu, & Chen, 2018).…”
