Long non-coding RNA NEAT1 increases the aggressiveness of gastric cancer by regulating the microRNA-142-5p/JAG1 axis.

Gastric cancer has been indicated to have a high recurrence rate in China. Previous studies have revealed that long non-coding RNA nuclear-enriched abundant transcript 1 (NEAT1) exerted critical roles in cancers. Therefore, the present study aimed to determine the function of NEAT1 and explore the unknown molecular mechanisms of gastric cancer pathogenesis.
