To further understand the mechanism of LINC00467 mediating downstream genes by recruiting DNMT1 in GC, we searched genes significantly negatively correlated with DNMT1 in GC included in TCGA, results of which were intersected with the significantly downregulated genes in GC of TCGA, revealing 148 candidate genes (Figure 1c). This evidence concerns the gene LINC00467 and gastric cancer.
