'''Nkx2-2as''' (Nkx2-2 antisense) is a [[long non-coding RNA]]. It is located in the [[cytoplasm]] of the [[cell]]. Nkx2-2as is involved in [[Neural development]]. Overexpression of Nkx2-2as results in increased levels of expression of the [[homeobox]] gene [[NKX2-2 | Nkx2-2]] and enhances induction of the [[Cellular differentiation | differentiation]] of [[oligodendrocytes]].<ref name="pmid18538132">{{cite journal |author=Tochitani S, Hayashizaki Y |title=Nkx2.2 antisense RNA overexpression enhanced oligodendrocytic differentiation |journal=Biochem.
