ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Compelling studies have demonstrated the correlation between aberrant expressed lncRNAs and human cancers, and revealed promise of these lncRNAs as biomarkers in predicting patients' survival and outcome. METHODS:We downloaded the RNA-seq data from the Cancer Genome Atlas, and screened out DEGs and DELs between gastric cancer tissues and normal gastric tissues. By bioinformatics analysis, we identified CTD-2510F5.4 was a malignant phenotype associated lncRNA. The expression levels of CTD-2510F5.4 in tissues were detected by ISH, and the relationships between CTD-2510F5.4 expression and clinicopathological characteristics were analyzed by statistical analysis. RESULTS:By bioinformatics analysis and functional analysis, we identified CTD-2510F5.4 was a malignant phenotype associated lncRNA of gastric cancer that potentially regulated cell cycle and apoptosis. CTD-2510F5.4 expression was significantly higher in gastric cancers, and was correlated with pathological grade, vascular or nerve invasion, AJCC TNM stage and OS. Moreover, gastric cancer patients with high CTD-2510F5.4 expression showed significantly shorter MST. High CTD-2510F5.4 expression was a independent risk factor for gastric cancers at pathological grade < III and without vascular or nerve invasion. CONCLUSIONS:We identified CTD-2510F5.4 was a malignant phenotype associated lncRNA potentially involved in the pathogenesis of gastric cancer. Our data also supported the clinical potential of CTD-2510F5.4 being a diagnostic and prognostic biomarker for gastric cancer.
