We speculated the modulatory function of LIMD1‐AS1 on LIMD1 in NSCLC because former findings imply that lncRNAs could regulate their neighbor genes.18, 28 We found through UCSC that LIMD1‐AS1 was neighbor to LIMD1 according to their genomic location. This evidence concerns the gene LIMD1 and non-small cell lung carcinoma.
