C20orf204 and hepatocellular carcinoma: A contrary expression pattern of LINC00176 has been detected in oesophageal cancer and patients exhibiting a higher LINC00176 expression are expected to have a longer overall survival.9 In consistency with our results, LINC00176 expression has been found to be expressed at high levels in hepatocellular carcinoma while depleted LINC00176 can induce necroptosis.8 To assess the involvement of LINC00176 in the biological behaviours of ovarian cancer cells, we treated HO8910 cells with si‐LINC00176.
