Overexpressed lncRNA GATA6-AS1 Inhibits LNM and EMT via FZD4 through the Wnt/β-Catenin Signaling Pathway in GC.

ABSTRACT: Gastric cancer (GC) is one of the leading causes of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Accumulating evidence reveals the significance of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in various cancers. The current study aimed to evaluate the role of GATA6 antisense RNA 1 (GATA6-AS1) in the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and lymph node metastasis (LNM) in GC. GC-related microarray datasets were initially retrieved from the GEO with differentially expressed lncRNAs screened, followed by evaluation of the regulatory relationship between Frizzled 4 (FZD4) and GATA6-AS1. The detailed regulatory mechanism by which GATA6-AS1 influences the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway and GC cell biological behaviors was investigated by treating SGC7901 cells with overexpressed GATA6-AS1, specific antisense oligonucl
