Chen et al. revealed that small nucleolar RNA host gene 8 (SNHG8) promotes the proliferation of non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells by increasing the expression of cyclin D1 (CCND1) and cyclin dependent kinase 6 (CDK6) via sponging and down-regulating miR-542-3p [15]. The gene discussed is SNHG8; the disease is non-small cell lung carcinoma.
