For example, in gastric cancer cells, the ceRNA HOXC-AS1 binds miR-590-3p [165], in colon cancer cells the ceRNA SNHG3 suppresses miR-182-5p activity [157], and ceRNA Linc00176 blocks the binding of miR-9 and miR-185-5p to MYC mRNA in hepatocellular carcinoma cells [178] (Figure 4). Here, MYC is linked to malignant colon neoplasm.
