However, the function of LINC00460 in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) remains elusive. Therefore, the present study aimed to investigate the role of LINC00460 in AML. The expression of LINC00460 in the serum of 80 diagnosed patients with AML and 67 healthy controls was measured via reverse transcription‑quantitative polymerase chain reaction, and the results were compared with clinical features and patient outcomes. The expression of LINC00460 in 45 patients with cytogenetically normal‑AML (CN‑AML) was also assayed. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were generated to evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of serum LINC00460. In addition, the effects of LINC00460 on the viability, cell cycle distribution and apoptosis of AML cells were investigated. Bioinformatics tools were used to identify the possible mechanisms of how LINC00460 affects AML cells. It was found that the expression rognostic biomarker for patients with AML. It was identified that LINC00460 may exert its effects, at least partly, via the miR‑320b/PBX3 axis in AML.Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most frequently encountered neoplasms and has a high rate of morbidity and mortality. Recent findings showing that tumor immune evasion is an important mechanism underlying propagation of a cancer have changed the landscape of medical oncology through identification of Programmed‑Death receptor 1 and its ligand (PD‑1 and PD‑L1) as novel targets for oncological immune therapies. PD‑1 is primarily expressed on peritumoral lymphocytes and when activated, it suppresses its immune functions. Conversely, PD‑L1 is primarily expressed on the tumor infiltrating front with the purpose of deregulating physiological cytotoxic immune responses. Numerous studies have linked PD‑L1 overexpression to specific adverse clinicopathological features
