Abstract
The role of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) in AKT-driven tumor development is unclear. Here, the authors identify VAL (Vimentin associated lncRNA) to be directly induced by AKT/STAT3 signaling and report a lncRNA-mediated mechanism for active AKT-driven EMT-independent lung adenocarcinoma metastasis.
