Abstract
ABSTRACTLncRNAs are widely linked to the complex development of gastric cancer, which is acknowledged worldwide as the third highest contributor to cancer-related deaths and the fifth most common form of cancer. The primary focus of this study is to examine the role of LncRNA PSMG3-AS1 in a group of individuals with gastric cancer. The results of our study indicate that PSMG3-AS1 is highly expressed in over 20 different types of cancer. Significantly, there was a clear association found between the expression of PSMG3-AS1 and a multitude of TMB and MSI tumors. PSMG3-AS1 exhibited significant upregulation in gastric cancer patients compared to healthy individuals within the gastric cancer cohort. The prognosis of gastric cancer patients is intrinsically associated with PSMG3-AS1, as confirmed by survival analysis and ROC curves. Furthermore, we created a disruption vector based on LncRNA PSMG3-AS1 and introduced it into AGS and MKN-45 cells, which are human gastric cancer cells. Significant decreases in the expression of the PSMG3-AS1 gene were noticed in both intervention groups compared to the NC group, reflecting the protein level expressions. Significantly, the proliferative and invasive capabilities of MKN-45 and AGS cells were notably reduced following transfection with PSMG3-AS1 siRNA. The results of our study indicate that disruption of the LncRNA PSMG3-AS1 gene may impact the CAV1/miR-451a signaling pathway, thereby leading to a reduction in the ability of gastric cancer cells to multiply and invade.
