LncRNA LINC02323 predicts adverse neoadjuvant chemotherapy outcomes of gastric cancer patients and regulates cell sensitivity to 5-fluorouracil by negatively modulating miR-139-3p.

ABSTRACT:

Background/objective

Drug resistance is a challenging problem in the clinical chemotherapy of gastric cancer. Identification of predictive biomarkers for chemotherapy outcomes could improve therapeutic efficacy and patient prognosis. This study aimed to assess the significance of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) LINC02323 in gastric cancer progression and neoadjuvant chemotherapy and to explore its potential regulatory mechanism.

Materials and methods

This study enrolled 117 patients with gastric cancer who received neoadjuvant chemotherapy combined with surgical treatment and 35 patients with benign gastroscopic results. The expression of LINC02323 in gastric mucosal tissues of study subjects was analyzed by PCR, and its association with chemotherapy efficacy and cancer develop
