Background: Gastric cancer (GC) remains one of the most common malignancies and the third cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs), including microRNAs and long ncRNAs, can contribute to the pathogenesis and progression of GC and therefore could be its potent diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers. The aim of our work was to estimate the expression of PROX1- AS1 (Prospero Homeobox 1 Antisense RNA 1) and miR-647 (microRNA-647) in GC and investigate their potential interaction and clinical significance.

Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs), including microRNAs (miRNAs), are involved in the pathogenesis and progression of GC and, therefore, may be potential diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers. Our work was aimed at investigating the predicted regulation of by miR-129-5p and miR-3613-3p and the clinical value of their aberrant expression in GC.
