TACC2 and preterm premature rupture of the membranes: Considering that the lncRNAs and mRNAs of TACC2, NBPF10, and PPP2R5C were all in the sense strands and had the same expression pattern in regulating mRNA transcript in PPROM, the lncRNAs in the first category may regulate their associated mRNAs by competing for miRNA binding of mRNAs.
