nc886 is induced by TGF-β and suppresses the microRNA pathway in ovarian cancer

Ovarian cancers often display elevated TGF-β signaling but repressed miRNA expression. Here the authors identify that non-coding RNA nc886 expression is induced by TGF-β, which then binds to DICER and impairs miRNA maturation.
