Liver-specific lncRNA FAM99A may be a tumor suppressor and promising prognostic biomarker in hepatocellular carcinoma

Increasing evidence shows that liver-specific long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play important roles in the development of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). We identified a novel liver-specific lncRNA, FAM99A, and examined its clinical significance and biological functions in HCC.
