ABSTRACT
Gastric cancer (GC) remains a major disease of high morbidity and mortality worldwide despite advances in diagnosis and treatment. Ras homolog family member T1 (RHOT1) plays an important role in several cancers. Our study aimed to analyze RHOT1 expression, to assess the relationship between its expression and the prognosis of patients, and know the impact of RHOT1 on GC cells. The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) RNA-seq data was used for gene expression analysis, survival and prognostic analysis. Nomograms were created to analyze the pathological factors of GC patients. RHOT1 expression was up-regulated by analyzed TCGA-Stomach adenocarcinoma (STAD) data and verified by Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) assay in GC tissues and cell lines. Furthermore, RHOT1 up-regulation was significantly associated with shorter survival of GC patients. At last, after silencing the expression of RHOT1 in AGS cell lines, we found that the proliferative ability of the cells was significantly reduced, the cell invasion ability was significantly inhibited, the cell migration ability was also significantly weakened, the cell cycle was arrested in the G0/G1 phase, and apoptosis was significantly increased. So RHOT1 could impact the apoptosis, proliferation, invasion, and migration behavior of GC cells. We trust RHOT1 has the potential to become a new oncogene biomarker for diagnosis and prognosis as well as a new therapeutic target in GC.
