| Summary: | HLA is critical in a variety of diseases, including infectious disease and cancer, and has been used for diagnostic differentiation and immunosurveillance of certain diseases. In addition, emerging evidence suggests that the mutations and dysregulation of lncRNAs are essential contributors in cancers. HLA Complex Group 11 (HCG11) located on MHC region is affiliated with the lncRNA class. Studies have shown that HCG11 could serve as a key regulator in lung cancer, prostate cancer, glioma, cervical cancer and hepatocellular carcinoma. In this review, we summarize the accumulated information on the expression and clinical value of HCG11 in different cancer types, discuss its interactions with microRNAs, mRNAs, and proteins, and discover the biological roles and potential mechanisms of HCG11 in a variety of cellular functions, including cell proliferation, apoptosis, migration, and invasion. Further, we emphasize the possible application of HCG11 in treatment, summarize the studies of HCG11 in chemotherapy resistance and hormone therapy, and propose the significance of further study of HCG11.
