To further investigate the clinical relationship between ALKBH5/LINC00659 and JAK1 in GC, we examined JAK1 and ALKBH5 expression in neoplastic tissues from patients with GC and divided tissues into ALKBH5‐Low and ALKBH5‐High groups according to ALKBH5 expression. Here, ALKBH5 is linked to gastric cancer.
