LncRNA DHRS4-AS1 ameliorates hepatocellular carcinoma by suppressing proliferation and promoting apoptosis via miR-522-3p/SOCS5 axis.

Recent years have seen much effect in revealing the pathological association between lncRNA and HCC. Herein, we identified lncRNA DHRS4-AS1 as a potential tumor suppressor in HCC. Firstly, it was discovered that DHRS4-AS1 was significantly down-regulated in HCC tissues compared to normal tissues based on the database TCGA.
