LncRNA AFAP1-AS1 promotes tumorigenesis and epithelial-mesenchymal transition of osteosarcoma through RhoC/ROCK1/p38MAPK/Twist1 signaling pathway

Abstract Background An increasing number of studies have demonstrated that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play pivotal roles in cancer onset and development. LncRNA AFAP1-AS1 has been validated to be abnormally upregulated and play oncogenic roles in various malignant tumors. The biological role and...
