Abstract
Gastric Cancer (GC) is one of the most three reasons related to death caused by cancer, especially in East Asia area, where many people have been suffering in this disease. Although there are significant improvements in surgical techniques and medical standards, the five-year survival rate of GC patients is still low. Epithelial- Mesenchymal Transition (EMT) plays a key role in the process of metastasis, which is a biological process that epithelial cells lose their polarity and turn into mesenchymal phenotype. It also enjoys a potential effect on invasion and migration of multiple malignancies, including that of gastric cancer. Accumulating evidences in literature suggest that long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) play an important role in the process of EMT. In this review, roles of lncRNAs in GC EMT are highlighted and pathways of lncRNAs in regulating EMT in GC is clarified.
