PVT1 and gastric cancer: Vesicular circulating plasmacytoma variant translocation 1 (PVT1) was found to facilitate drug resistance in gastric cancer cells; it induces autophagy activation by modulating the miR-30a-5p, whose target is YAP1, a factor involved in the transcriptional modulation of several genes related to cell proliferation and apoptosis suppression [50].
