Analogous to RPPH1, RMRP is also implicated as a molecular sponge for specific miRNAs that otherwise target genes associated with growth, including miR-206, in which case RMRP overexpression neutralizes miR-206 levels and activities in lung adenocarcinoma (Meng et al., 2016), neuroblastoma (Pan et al., 2019), bladder cancer (Cao et al., 2019), and hepatocellular carcinoma contexts (Hongfeng et al., 2020). This evidence concerns the gene RMRP and hepatocellular carcinoma.
