CASP7 and gastric cancer: Zhang et al have shown that lncRNA FAM84B-AS (FAM84B antisense RNA) increases the expression levels of BCL-2 and BCL-xL and decreases the expression levels of caspase-9, caspase-3, and caspase-7, consequently inhibiting apoptosis and causing gastric cancer cell resistance to DDP; however, silencing FAM84B-AS enhances gastric cancer cell sensitivity to DDP in vitro and in vivo [152].
