Differential expression of cancer-related lncRNAs in different subtypes of pituitary adenomas.

Recent investigations have demonstrated abnormal expression of non-coding RNAs in pituitary adenomas. Cntribution of many lncRNAs to the pathogenesis of these tumors has not been evaluated yet. HOTTIP, ANRIL, PANDAR, PCGEM1 and HOTAIR are among lncRNAs with established roles in the pathogenesis of human cancers, particularly those originated from endocrine organs.
