In a previous study, we reported that three miRNAs (hsa-miR-421, hsa-miR-29b-1-5p, and hsa-miR-27b-5p) in conjunction with two mRNAs (FBXO11 and CREBZF) might play an important role in gastric adenocarcinoma (GC) development from premalignant adenomas 7. Here, CREBZF is linked to gastric adenocarcinoma.
