For instance, gastric cancer-associated transcript 3 (GACAT3) gene advanced cell proliferation and invasion of colorectal cancer cells;27 LINC00152 was a predictive biomarker of metastasis and survival in various cancers;28 our previous study found that growth arrest-specific 5 (GAS5) gene inhibited the malignant proliferation and doxorubicin resistance of BC, and was an independent prognostic biomarker for BC11. The gene discussed is GAS5; the disease is colorectal cancer.
