Upregulation of lncRNA LINC00460 Facilitates GC Progression through Epigenetically Silencing CCNG2 by EZH2/LSD1 and Indicates Poor Outcomes.

ABSTRACT: Non-protein-coding functional elements in the human genome in the postgenomic biology field have been drawing great attention in recent years. Thousands of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been found to be expressed in various tumors. Yet only a small proportion of these lncRNAs have been well characterized. We have demonstrated that LINC00460 could affect cell proliferation through epigenetic regulation of KLF2 and CUL4A in human colorectal cancer. However, the clinical significance and biological role of LINC00460 in gastric cancer (GC) remain largely unknown. In this research, we discovered that LINC00460 is remarkably upregulated in GC tissues compared to the non-tumor tissues. Additionally, LINC00460 served as an independent prognostic marker in GC. Functionally, proliferation of G
