Annotated Information
Name
GAPLINC:gastric adenocarcinoma predictive long intergenic noncoding RNA
Characteristics
GAPLINC is a 924-bp-long lncRNA that is highly expressed in gastric cancer tissues[1]
Function
Manipulating GAPLINC expression alters CD44 mRNA abundance and the effects of GAPLINC on cell migration and proliferation are neutralized by suppressing CD44 expression. And GAPLINC regulates CD44 as a molecular decoy for miR211-3p, a microRNA that targets both CD44 and GAPLINC. Tissue ISH analysis suggests that GAPLINC overexpression defines a subgroup of patients with gastric cancer with very poor survival.
Expression
The expression levels of GAPLINC is most upregulated in gastric cancer compared with normal tissue based on ISH. In addition, GAPLINC expression correlates with poor outcome of gastric cancers.[1]
Diseases
Gastric cancer[1]
