The biological functions of transfected cells were further analyzed and we observed that overexpression of LINC01342 enhanced the growth of LC cells, while both miR-508-5p elevation and CRISP3 inhibition reversed the effects of LINC01342 overexpression on LC cells in vitro (Fig. 7B–F). This evidence concerns the gene LINC01342 and laryngotracheoesophageal cleft.
