MiR-99a-3p downregulates TRIM21 to promote gastric cancer development.

ABSTRACT: Gastric cancer (GC) stands as one of the most formidable malignancies worldwide. It is well-established that miRNAs play a crucial role in the initiation and progression of various human cancers. Among these, miR-99a-3p has been implicated in the pathogenesis of GC. In the context of our study, we embarked on the comprehensive examination of miR-99a-3p expression in GC cells. Additionally, we sought to establish a correlation between miR-99a-3p expression levels and the overall survival (OS) of GC patients, and our findings hinted at its potential role in predicting an unfavorable prognosis. To further investigate the functional implications of miR-99a-3p in GC, we conducted a series of cell-based experiments after successfully knocking down miR-99a-3p. These investigations uncovered a sub
