HOTAIR and cervical carcinoma: Indeed, Liu et al. [94] described microRNA-21 and microRNA-146a to be upregulated in cervical cancer patients in association with the high levels of cervical cancer-derived exosomes in CVF, and Zhang et al. [95] recently showed that expression of the HOTAIR, MALAT1 and MEG3 long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) was predominantly observed in cervical cancer-derived exosomes in cervical vaginal lavage samples.
