Searching for coexpressed lncRNAclusters or representative biomarkers related to malignant phenotypes of GC mayhelp to elucidate the mechanism of tumor development and predict the prognosisof GC.AIMTo investigate the prognostic value of NOTCH1 associated with lncRNA in T cellacute lymphoblastic leukemia 1 (NALT1) in GC and the mechanism of itsinvolvement in GC invasion and metastasis.METHODSRNA sequencing and corresponding clinical data were downloaded from TheCancer Genome Atlas database. The significance module was studied byweighted gene coexpression network analysis. A total of 336 clinical sampleswere included in the study. Gene silencing, reverse transcription polymerasechain reaction, western blotting, scrape motility assay, and Transwell migrationassay were used to assess the function of hub-lncRNAs.RESULTSAt the transcriptome level, 3339 differentially expressed lncRNAs were obtained.weighted gene coexpression network analysis was used to obtain 15 lncRNAclusters and observe their coexpression. Pearson’s correlation showed that blue module was correlated with tumor grade and survival. NALT1 was the hublncRNAof blue module and was an independent risk factor for GC prognosis.NALT1 was overexpressed in GC and its expression was closely related toinvasion and metastasis. The mechanism may involve NALT1 regulation ofNOTCH1, which is associated with lncRNA in T cell acute lymphoblasticleukemia, through cis regulation, thereby affecting the expression of the NOTCHsignaling pathway.CONCLUSIONNALT1 is overexpressed and promotes invasion and metastasis of GC. Themechanism may be related to regulation of NOTCH1 by NALT1 and its effect onNOTCH signaling pathway expression.展开更多
