SNHG12 and non-small cell lung carcinoma: Studies have shown that SNHG12, like other lncRNAs, acts as an endogenous sponge that competes for several miRNAs including hsa-miR-181b-5p, hsa-miR-181a-5p, hsa-miR-16-5p, hsa-miR-15a-5p, hsa-miR-195-5p, hsa-miR-497-5p, hsa-miR-181c-5p, hsa-miR-181d-5p, hsa-miR-15b-5p, hsa-miR-138, and hsa-miR-218 in NSCLC (31).
