Abstract Gastric carcinoma (GC) remains the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Good biomarkers are of paramount importance for GC therapy. This study aimed to assess the role of long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) CAT104 in GC. We found that CAT104 was highly expressed in human GC NCI-N87, SGC7901, BGC823, BGC803, and AGS cells. Suppression of CAT104 decreased NCI-N87 cell viability, migration, and invasion, but promoted apoptosis. CAT104 knockdown enhanced the expression of microRNA- 381 (miR-381) expression in NCI-N87 cells. miR-381 participated in the regulatory effects of CAT104 on NCI-N87 cell viability, migration, invasion, and apoptosis.

Abstract Gastric cancer (GC) is one of the most frequent epithelial malignancies worldwide. The gastrointestinal (GI) peptide gastrin is an important regulator of the secretion and release of gastric acid from stomach parietal cells, and it also plays a vital role in the development and progression of GC. The aim of the current study was to investigate the role and underlying mechanism of gastrin and autophagy in regulating GC tumorigenesis. Gastrin-17 amide (G-17) was applied in the GC cell lines SGC7901 and MGC-803. The results showed that G-17 maintained the high viability of SGC7901 and MGC-803.… More >

Abstract miR-101-3p has been identified as a tumor suppressor in several cancers, but its exact role in gastric adenocarcinoma is still largely unknown. In this study, we found that, compared with the RGM-1 human normal gastric epithelial cells, miR-101-3p was significantly downregulated in all six human gastric adenocarcinoma cell lines, including BGC-823, MNK-45, MGC-803, SGC-7901, AGS, and HGC-27. Overexpression of miR- 101-3p suppressed both the proliferation and invasion of AGS gastric adenocarcinoma cells, and knockdown of miR-101-3p displayed the opposite effect. In addition, miR-101-3p could directly target and suppress the expression of the serum response factor More >

Abstract Gastric carcinoma is one of the most common malignancies in men, and microRNA plays a critical role in regulating the signaling networks of gastric carcinoma tumorigenesis and metastasis. We first report the functional characteristics of miR-221-3p in gastric carcinoma. Quantification in gastric carcinoma cell lines and tumor samples reveals significantly increasing miR-221-3p expression. Moreover, a high level of miR-221-3p is correlated with a poor prognosis for gastric carcinoma patients. Ectopic miR-221-3p expression significantly promotes gastric carcinoma cell proliferation, invasion, and sphere formation, while silencing miR- 221-3p significantly inhibits these abilities in gastric carcinoma cells.

Abstract In this study, the effects of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) on gastric carcinoma (GC) drug resistance through apoptosis-related genes are investigated. First, HIF-1α-specific siRNA was synthetized and transfected into drug-resistant GC cell line OCUM-2MD3/L-OHP. Then MTT assay was applied to test the inhibition rate of GC cells by 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) and oxaliplatin (L-OHP). After that, flow cytometry (FCM) was applied to measure apoptosis rate. qPCR and Western blot assay were employed to detect HIF-1α and apoptosis-related genes. Results showed that HIF-1α in OCUM-2MD3/L-OHP cells was higher than that in OCUM-2MD3 and gastric epithelial cells. After HIF-1α-siRNA More >

Abstract Emerging evidence has identified the vital role of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) in the development of colorectal cancer. In this study, we aimed to investigate the role of lncRNA gastric carcinoma highly expressed transcript 1 (GHET1) in colorectal cancer. We analyzed the expression of GHET1 in colorectal cancer (CRC) tissues by using ISH. We found that GHET1 expression was significantly increased in the CRC samples compared with adjacent tissues. Furthermore, the cancer tissues had higher GHET1 mRNA levels than their matched adjacent tissues. GHET1 expression was also significantly increased in the CRC cell lines compared More >
