Abstract
Aim: To identify novel competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) network correlated with the prognosis of gastric cancer (GC) patients. Materials & methods: We systematically analyzed the aberrantly expressed genes in human GC to construct a ceRNA network by using multiple bioinformatic tools. Results: Aberrantly expressed mRNAs in GC were identified. By means of stepwise reverse prediction and validation from mRNA to lncRNA, a ceRNA network comprised of H19, miR-29a-3p, COL3A1, COL5A2, COL1A2 and COL4A1 was constructed, and all genes in the network are significantly correlated with the prognosis of GC patients. Conclusion: The present study successfully constructed a GC related ceRNA network, and provided potential targets for GC clinical treatment.
