LncRNA UCA1 reduced cisplatin response of OAW42 ovarian cancer cells via direct sponging to miR-27a-5p and decreasing the expression of UBE2N levels, resulting in the inhibition of BIM expression, a member of the Bcl-2 family to induce apoptotic death (Wambecke et al., 2021). This evidence concerns the gene UCA1 and ovarian cancer.
