For instance, LncRNA SNHG6 downregulates the miR-101-3p/EZH2 pathway in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) (Zhang et al., 2022a), and circNTRK2 promotes cell proliferation, migration, and EMT by sponging miR-140-3p and upregulating NRIP1 (Chen X. et al., 2020). Here, NRIP1 is linked to esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.
