Although we know lncRNAs play a role in cancer, the identification of clinically relevant and functional lncRNAs is lacking. Here, the authors identify 633 prognostic markers, 570 S-phase cancer-associated lncRNAs, and show SCAT7 regulates FGF/FGFR and PI3K/AKT/MAPK pathways via interaction with hnRNPK/YBX1 complexes.
