To investigate the role of CDKN2B‐AS1 and miR‐181a‐5p in cervical cancer progression, we determined the expression level of CDKN2B‐AS1 and miR‐181a‐5p in human normal cervical cell line Etc1/E6E7 and in cervical cancer lines HeLa, C4‐1, SiHa, and Ca Ski cells. Here, CDKN2B is linked to cervical carcinoma.
