Aberrant expression of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) has been linked to cancers. The MYC oncoprotein is a key contributor to the development of many human tumors. Recent studies have revealed that a number of lncRNAs originating from the human 8q24 locus previously known to corresponding to a 'gene desert' are transcribed and play important roles in MYC regulation. In this review, we highlight recent progress in how these lncRNAs participate in control of MYC levels in normal and tumor cells.

Colon cancer is a leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide and has been increasingly linked to the gut microbiome. Clostridium butyricum (CB), a probiotic, has demonstrated potential in influencing colon cancer cell behavior, particularly through the modulation of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) and mRNAs. This study examines the effects of CB on the expression of lncRNAs and mRNAs in SW480 colon cancer cells and their association with apoptosis.

The intestinal microbiota is a key environmental factor in the development of colorectal cancer (CRC). Here, we report that, in the context of mild colonic inflammation, the microbiota protects against colorectal tumorigenesis in mice. This protection is achieved by microbial suppression of the long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) Snhg9.
