Numerous studies have confirmed that lncRNA exerted complex effects in progression of tumourigenesis and numerous overexpressed lncRNA has been found in hepatic carcinoma.23, 24 SNHG7 has been identified as an oncogene in breast cancer, lung cancer, and colorectal cancer.13, 14 In this work, a significant SNHG7 overexpression was observed in hepatic carcinoma tissues compared with adjacent histologically normal hepatic tissues. The gene discussed is SNHG7; the disease is breast cancer.
