IL6 and nasopharyngeal carcinoma: For example, the NEAT1/let-7a-5p axis regulates cisplatin resistance in NPC [46], LINC00460 upregulates IL6 by sequestering miR-149-5p to promote NPC development [45], and lncRNA SNHG1 acts as a ceRNA to mitigate the downregulation of NUAK1 by miR-145a-5p in NPC cells [50].
