Imbalance between Expression of FOXC2 and Its lncRNA in Lymphedema-Distichiasis Caused by Frameshift Mutations
Forkhead-box C2 (FOXC2) is a transcription factor involved in lymphatic system development. <i>FOXC2</i> mutations cause Lymphedema-distichiasis syndrome (LD). Recently, a natural antisense was identified, called lncRNA FOXC2-AS1, which increases <i>FOXC2</i> mRNA stability....
