ABSTRACT
A growing body of evidence suggests that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), a novel class of non-coding endogenous single-stranded RNA, play a key role in multiple physiological and pathological processes through transcriptional interference, post-transcriptional regulation, and epigenetic modification. Furthermore, many studies have shown that lncRNAs-as oncogenes or tumour suppressors-play an important role in the occurrence and development of human cancers. Small nucleolar RNA host gene 16 (SNHG16) was initially identified as an oncogenic lncRNA in neuroblastoma, and has since been identified as a carcinogenic regulator of various malignant tumours. Overexpression of SNHG16 is associated with clinical and pathological characteristics of cancer patients, and regulates cell proliferation, apoptosis, invasion and metastasis through a variety of potential mechanisms. Therefore, SNHG16 may be a promising biomarker and therapeutic target for cancers. In this review, we summarize the biological function, related mechanisms and potential clinical significance of SNHG16 in multiple human cancers.
