ZNNT1 long noncoding RNA induces autophagy to inhibit tumorigenesis of uveal melanoma by regulating key autophagy gene expression

Abstract excerpt

Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are proved to be critical regulators in numerous cellular processes. However, the potential involvement of lncRNAs in macroautophagy/autophagy is largely unknown. Autophagy is a highly regulated cellular degradation system, and its dysregulation is involved in many human diseases, including cancers. Here, we show that the lncRNA ZNNT1 is induced by PP242 and MTORC1 selective...
