MTOR and thyroid cancer: Hou et al. (2018) showed that lncRNA TNRC6C-AS1 regulates UNC5B in thyroid cancer to influence cell proliferation, migration, and invasion as a ceRNA of miR-129-5p. In H9c2 cells, miR-129-5p inhibits autophagy and apoptosis induced by hydrogen peroxide via the PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway (Zhang, Zhang & Zhang, 2018).
