Effects and prognostic values of miR-30c-5p target genes in gastric cancer via a comprehensive analysis using bioinformatics.

ABSTRACT: Gastric cancer (GC) is a common cancer and the leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide. To improve the diagnosis and treatment of GC, it is necessary to identify new biomarkers by investigating the cellular and molecular mechanisms. In this study, miR-30c-5p expression was significantly down-regulated in GC tissues by comprehensive analysis using multiple databases. The target genes of miR-30c-5p with up-regulated expression level in GC were identified, including ADAM12 (a disintegrin and metalloproteinase12), EDNRA (the Endothelin receptor type A), STC1 (stanniocalcin 1), and CPNE8 (the calcium-dependent protein, copine 8). The expression level of ADAM12 was significantly related to depth of invasion (p = 0.036) in GC patients. The expression level of EDNRA was significantly relat
