Li Y et al further pointed out that the PIK3CA/AKT/MTOR signaling pathway might play a crucial role in the mechanism induced by SNHG7. 53SNHG7 also could sponge MIR216B, to increase GALNT1 and activate EMT to promote colorectal cancer cell migration and invasion.32 Wang et al put forward that SNHG12 augmented colon cancer proliferation, cell cycle progression and inhibited apoptosis by inhibiting the related proteins CDK4, CDK6 and CCND1, and suppressing CASP3.54Shorter overall survival rate and disease‐free survival rate were correlated with higher DANCR expression. The gene discussed is CDK4; the disease is colorectal cancer.
