In NSCLC tissues, many onco-miRs/tumor suppressor-target or tumor suppressor-miRs/onco-target pathways have been demonstrated to participate in the tumorigenesis of lung cancer, including miR7/BCL2 axis, miR-99b/FGFR3 axis, miR-101/EZH2 axis, miR-192/RB1 axis and miR-196/HOXA5 axis [26-30]. Here, HOXA5 is linked to lung carcinoma.
