Some lncRNAs are proven prospective markers of diagnosis, prognosis, and potential treatment targets in STAD, including EMT-associated lncRNA induced by TGFβ1 (ELIT-1) (20), LINC00346 (21), gastric cancer-associated lncRNA 1 (22) and gastric cancer metastasis-associated long noncoding RNA (23). This evidence concerns the gene TGFB1 and gastric adenocarcinoma.
