Accumulating evidence has revealed that lncRNAs could function as miRNA sponges or ceRNA in regulating tumor progression.22, 23 LINC00460 has been reported to act as a ceRNA for regulating miR‐539 in meningioma11 and miR‐149‐5p in nasopharyngeal carcinoma.15 To explore the molecular mechanism of LINC00460 in glioma progression, Starbase v.2.0 was used to predict potential miRNAs that directly interacted with LINC00460. This evidence concerns the gene LINC00460 and nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
