Clinical significance of long non‐coding RNA ZEB2‐AS1 and EMT ‐related markers in ductal and lobular breast cancer

Collectively, our findings suggest that ZEB2-AS1 expression is significantly upregulated in tumor tissues, especially in advanced stages and ZEB2-AS1 is associated with the aggressiveness of tumors by functioning as putative oncogenic lncRNA. In addition, a combination of ZEB2-AS1 and these EMT markers in breast cancer potentiates these genes as biomarkers for tumor progression.
