Identification of Long Noncoding RNAs Expression Profiles Between Gallstone and Gallbladder Cancer Using Next-Generation Sequencing Analysis

Gallstone disease (GS) is an important risk factor for Gallbladder cancer (GBC). However, the mechanisms of the progression of GS to GBC remain unclear. Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA), modulates DNA/RNA/proteins at epigenetic, pre-transcriptional, transcriptional and posttranscriptional levels, and plays a potential therapeutic role in various diseases. This study aims to identify lncRNAs that have a potential impact on GS-promoted GBC progression.
