Subsequently, the “mRNA-miRNA-lncRNA” model was then used to predict the upstream miRNAs and lncRNAs of SNX16 and PAPOLG using the miRNet database, and the miRNAs with low expression and good prognosis in HCC and the lncRNAs with high expression and poor prognosis in HCC were screened by differential expression and survival analysis. The gene discussed is SNX16; the disease is hepatocellular carcinoma.
