It is also revealed that miR‐126 facilitates angiogenesis of GC through regulating vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) level, which is an important regulator in vasculogenesis.18 These studies indicate that miRNAs are involved in angiogenesis, and aberrant expressions of these miRNAs are associated with etiology and progression in cancers.24, 25, 26, 27, 28 However, the predictive value of angiogenesis‐related miRNAs in GC is rarely reported. Here, VEGFA is linked to gastric cancer.
