While Jing et al. [39] found that long intergenic nonprotein encoding long-chain RNA p53-induced transcript (lncRNA LINC-PINT) increased the expression of suppressor of cytokine signaling-1 (SOCS-1) by sponging miR-155-5p and inhibited the activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) signaling pathway in rheumatoid arthritis synovial fibroblasts induced by TNF-α to treat rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Here, TNF is linked to rheumatoid arthritis.
