In prostate cancer, the oncogenic role of miR-616it was also demonstrated; specifically, it was shown that miR-616 is a target of circular RNA hsa_circ_0007494, which functioned as a “molecular sponge” for miR-616 and hence upregulates the target of miR-616, PTEN [33]. The gene discussed is PTEN; the disease is prostate carcinoma.
