NEAT1 and leishmaniasis: We further report that several ncRNAs were investigated as diseases biomarkers and a number of them showed good potential for disease diagnosis, including miR-769-5p, miR-320a, miR-22-3p, miR-423-5p, miR-17-5p, miR-20b-5p and lncRNA LOC152742 in tuberculosis; miR-146b-5p, miR-223, miR-150, miR-16, miR-191 and lncRNA NEAT1 in HIV/AIDS; miR-451 and miR-16 in malaria; miR-361-3p, miR-193b, miR-671, lncRNA 7SL in leishmaniasis; miR-101, miR-196b, miR-27b and miR-29c in leprosy.
