    Abstract:
    Gastric cancer (GC) is lethal malignancy, which is associated with high mortality. Long noncoding RNA LINC01270 has been identified to act as a potential oncogene in several cancers. However, its role and related regulatory mechanism in GC are yet to be illustrated. The levels of lncRNA LINC01270, miR-326, and EphrinA3 (EFNA3) were assessed by quantitative reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) and colony formation assays were applied for analyzing cell proliferation. Transwell assay was used for measuring cellular migration and invasion. Western blot analysis was employed for evaluating the protein levels. Luciferase reporter and RNA pull-down assays were utilized to verify the binding ability between LINC01270 (or EFNA3) and miR-326. Our findings indicated that LINC01270 expression was significantly up-regulated in GC tissues and cell lines. Additionally, LINC01270 knockdown attenuated GC progression through inhibiting cell proliferation, migration, and invasion. Functional experiments identified that lncRNA LINC01270 could positively regulate EFNA3 expression by serving as a competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) for miR-326. Through rescue assays, inhibition of GC progression caused by LINC01270 suppression was found to be reversed by the application of miR-326 inhibitor or EFNA3 overexpression. Overall, our work demonstrated that lncRNA LINC01270 can accelerate cell proliferation, migration, and invasion via modulating miR-326/EFNA3 axis. These findings might implicate the potential role of lncRNA LINC01270 in GC treatment.
