“…Another example is TUG1 , which sequesters miR-29b-3p , miR-29c , miR-133b , and miR-590 [ 45 , 46 , 51 , 52 ]. As there are more miRNAs being identified to bind these two exemplified lncRNAs in other cell types (e.g., cardiomyocytes, endothelial cells), cellular statuses, and diseases [ 51 , 52 , 53 , 54 , 55 , 56 , 57 ], it is important to perform a comparative study of lncRNAs and several miRNAs being reported to be sequestered by the target lncRNAs by measuring the copy numbers of each RNA species. Without such a head-to-head comparative study, more and more miRNAs will be reported to be sequestered by one lncRNA, despite its expression level being far lower than those of the sequestered miRNAs.…”
