FGF/FGFR-related lncRNAs based classification predicts prognosis and guides therapy in gastric cancer.

ABSTRACT: Fibroblast growth factor (FGF) and its receptor (FGFR) play crucial roles in gastric cancer (GC). Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are defined as RNA molecules of around 200 nucleotides or more, which are not translated into proteins. As well-known regulatory factors, lncRNAs are considered as biomarkers for prognosis and treatment response in GC. It is of importance to identify FGF/FGFR-related lncRNAs in GC. Here, some FGF/FGFR-related lncRNAs were identified in GC based on the data from public databases, the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO). Then a four-lncRNAs (FGF10-AS1, MIR2052HG, POU6F2-AS2, and DIRC1) risk score (RS) model was established for predicting GC's prognosis by using Cox analysis. According to the median value of RS, G
