Specifically, LINC01116 was connected with miR-423-3P, miR-1908-5P, miR-744-5P, miR-1180-3P, miR-671-5P, GSK3B, FOXM1, TNIP2, PA2G4, BCL2L11, NKIRAS2, EEF1A2, TLE3. Then, validation by the Oncomine database suggested that OLFML2B, PLAU, and MRC2 have differential expressions and diagnostic potentials for HCC in the two datasets (all P < 0.050, all AUC > 0.700, Figure S3 C-H, K-P). Here, MRC2 is linked to hepatocellular carcinoma.
