For example, LINC00638 promotes immune escape in hepatocellular carcinoma by sponging microRNA-4732-3p and targeting UL16-binding protein 1 (ULBP1) [43], and the lncRNA Down syndrome critical region 8 (DSCR8) interacts with microRNA-137 to facilitate gastric cancer progression [44]. The gene discussed is VESTAR; the disease is gastric cancer.
