LncRNA SNHG5 acted as a direct target of the miR-212-3p. a Bioinformatics analysis identified a potential miR-212-3p binding site of SNHG5. b, c qPCR detected the expression of SNHG5 after transfection of miR-212-3p mimics and inhibitors. d Luciferase reporter assay detected the luciferase activity of cells co-transfected with miR-335-5p mimics or miR-NC and SNHG5. e qPCR detected the expression of SGK3 after transfection of mimics, si-SGK3, si-SNHG5. n = 3, **P < 0.01, compared to miR-NC
