A literature search on “lncRNA-miRNA pairs” in cancer revealed two lncRNA (NEAT1, MALAT1) -miR-101-3p interactions in lung cancer (Wang et al., 2017b; Kong et al., 2019b), two lncRNA (TUG1, MALAT1) -miR-26a-5p interactions observed in colon cancer and colorectal cancer (Tian et al., 2019; Zhou et al., 2021) and two lncRNA (TUG1, MALAT1) -miR-1-3p interactions in hepatic carcinoma, esophagus cancer (Li et al., 2020; Tang et al., 2022). This evidence concerns the gene NEAT1 and lung carcinoma.
