    Abstract:
    Gastric cancer (GC) is one of the most common malignancies, ranking the third highest mortality rate worldwide. Due to the insidious symptoms and difficulty in early detection, patients with GS were mostly in the middle and late stages when they were diagnosed. Although ontogenetic or tumor-suppressive effects of miRNA-200a-3p have been demonstrated, the exact mechanism underlying GC is not clear. Therefore, the expression, effect, and mechanism of miRNA-200a-3p in GC progression were systematically investigated in this study. qRT-PCR, Western blotting, and immunohistochemical staining were applied to investigate the miRNA-200a-3p and deleted in liver cancer 1 (DLC-1) expression. Cell viability, proliferation, apoptosis, migration, and invasion capabilities of GC cells were assessed using cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) colorimetry, EdU integration, flow cytometry, wound healing, and the transwell assay. The relationship between miRNA-200a-3p and tumor growth was investigated by tumor xenograft assay in vivo. A dual-luciferase reporter assay was estimated to verify the connection between miR-200-3p and DLC-1. The results showed that miRNA-200a-3p expression was significantly increased in both GC tissues and cells. Furthermore, via DLC-1, miRNA-200a-3p promotes tumor growth and development. miRNA-200a-3p, by targeting DLC-1, can function as an oncogene in GC cells. Collectively, our findings indicated that the miRNA-200a-3p/DLC axis might provide a theological basis for potential improvements in GC treatment strategies.
