In digestive system cancers, the lncRNA SNHG11 is upregulated in gastric cancer (GC) and is associated with a poor prognosis of the patients, which post-transcriptionally upregulates ATG12 through miR-1276 to enhance autophagy and proliferation and further activate the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway (Wu et al., 2021). The gene discussed is ATG12; the disease is gastric cancer.
