DANCR could act as sponges for multiple miRNAs including miR-216a-5p (Wang J. et al., 2019), miR-27a-3p (Guo D. et al., 2019), miR-125b-5p (Yang et al., 2020), miR-140-3p (Wen et al., 2020) and miR-222-3p (Wang X. et al., 2020) in HCC. This evidence concerns the gene DANCR and hepatocellular carcinoma.
