KCNQ1OT1 acted as a sponge for miR-370-3p. A A binding site between KCNQ1OT1 and miR-370-3p was predicted by starbase2.0. B Relative expression of miR-370-3p in LPS-induced WI-38 cells was detected by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). ^**P < 0.01, vs. small interfering (si)-negative control (NC). C The targeting relationship between KCNQ1OT1 and miR-370-3p was validated by dual-luciferase reporter (DLR) assay in LPS-induced WI-38 cells. ^**P < 0.01. vs. mimics-NC
