LINC00958 and gastric cancer: Thirdly, plate colony formation assays showed that the down-regulation of miR-193b-5p enhanced increased proliferation capacity of gastric cancer cell lines in vitro(Figure 5C); the statistical analysis results are presented in Supplementary Figure 2C-D. In summary, miR-193b-5p acted as a tumor suppressor and was negatively regulated by BLACAT2 in gastric cancer.
