Tumor suppressor and oncogenic role of long non-coding RNAs in cancer.

Non-coding RNAs are RNA molecules that are not translated into the protein, making up the vast majority of the human genome. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNA) are in the RNA group that has longer than 200 nucleotides, and non-protein coding transcripts. In recent years, the potential has attracted considerable attention as new important biological regulators.
