APC and gastric cancer: Recently, a growing number of studies have verified that the lncRNA–miRNA–mRNA regulatory network plays a critical role in the progression and pathogenesis of several conditions, including bladder cancer, gastric cancer, and other malignant tumors.[12–14] Yang et al[12] demonstrated that LINC01133 inhibits gastric cancer progression and metastasis by acting as a ceRNA for miR-106a-3p to regulate APC expression and the Wnt/β-catenin pathway.
