Overview

Family with sequence similarity 66 member A (FAM66A), also known as FAM86B2-DT, is a long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) implicated in cancer biology, particularly in the regulation of tumor metastasis in lung adenocarcinoma and the prognosis of small cell lung cancer[1]. It may participate in cell signaling pathways, notably interacting with vitamin D receptor signaling, and is under investigation for its potential role as a diagnostic or prognostic biomarker in various cancers. FAM66A is not a receptor, enzyme, or conventional druggable therapeutic target, but rather is studied for its regulatory and biomarker roles in disease[1].
