We also hypothesized that hsa-miR-153-3p, as well as its downstream gene candidate, Cbp/P300-interacting transactivator with Glu/Asp-rich carboxy-terminal domain 2 (CITED2), may serve as the ceRNA candidate to be correlated with FGD5-AS1 in regulating gastric cancer cell proliferation and chemoresistance. This evidence concerns the gene FGD5 and gastric cancer.
