In cancer biology, linc00324 suppresses TRIM29 via miR-195-5p upregulation, inhibiting thyroid papillary carcinoma proliferation and invasion (Xu et al., 2020), while ELFN1-AS1 promotes gastric cancer progression by suppressing miR-211-3p and upregulating TRIM29 (Huang et al., 2023). The gene discussed is TRIM29; the disease is thyroid gland papillary carcinoma.
