Core Tip

Core tip: Many long noncoding RNAs were differentially expressed in gastric cancer (GC), some of which, including LINC02407, had significant impacts on the prognosis of patients. In vitro experiments showed that LINC02407 was significantly upregulated in GC cell lines and tissue samples, and could promote the proliferation and migration and inhibit apoptosis of GC cells. Mechanistic research found that LINC02407 can regulate the expression of adhesion G protein-coupled receptor D1 by targeting miR-6845-5p and miR-4455 and increased the malignancy of GC cells eventually. Our study provides evidence that LINC02407 may be an important oncogene and has potential value in GC diagnosis and treatment.
