Abstract
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and pancreatic cancer (PC) are among serious malignancies with no proper biomarker suffering from poor prognosis and late onset. Regulation of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) is disturbed in tumors, making them appropriate diagnostic markers or therapeutic targets in systemic therapies. The expression and function of some significant lncRNAs are under the influence of SNPs, highlighting their key role in carcinogenesis. This review assesses the associations between SNPs in lncRNAs and HCC and PC risk. A panel of cancer-associated SNPs in lncRNA genes could help evaluate the clinical use of lncRNAs, including their role as diagnostic markers and therapeutic targets. Nonetheless, more large-scale surveys on various ethnic groups are required to validate results.
