In addition, the Transwell assay results in Figure 2(g) indicated that LINC00649 positively regulated GC cell migration, and further Western Blot analysis results supported that overexpressed LINC00649 upregulated N-cadherin and Vimentin, and downregulated E-cadherin to trigger epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) process in GC cells, while silencing of LINC00649 had opposite effects (Figure 2(h-k)). Here, VIM is linked to gastric cancer.
