Some mRNAs in the ceRNA network were previously known as linked with cancer including the E2F Transcription Factor 7 (E2F7), Solute Carrier Family 7 Member 11 (SLC7A11), Kinesin Family Member 23 (KIF23), Chromobox 2 (CBX2), Enhancer of Zeste 2 Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 Subunit (EZH2), and Cell Division Cycle 25A (CDC25A). This evidence concerns the gene SLC17A1 and cancer.
