ABSTRACT
Competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) pathways play pivotal roles in the formation and progression of gastric cancer (GC). Employing multi-omics analysis, we sought to identify a ceRNA network associated with GC progression. We analyzed3Gene Expression Omnibus datasets as well as data from The Cancer Genome Atlas to identify genes that were differentially expressed in GC tissues. A total of 84 upregulated genes and 106 downregulated genes were found. Enrichment analysis indicated that some pathways were strongly linked with tumor formation and progression. We also screened hub genes to establish a lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA network. We ultimately identified 8 hub genes, 6 key miRNAs and 4 key lncRNAs that interact within a common ceRNA network. Correlation analysis and in vitro experiments were conducted to verify the regulatory effect of the ceRNA network in GC. A knockdown assay confirmed that the DLGAP1-AS1/miR-203a-3p/THBS2 axis is a ceRNA network involved in GC progression. In this study, we elucidated the role of the DLGAP1-AS1/miR-203a-3p/THBS2 ceRNA network in the progression of GC. These molecules maybe evaluated as therapeutic targets and prognostic biomarkers for GC.
