Genomic analyses identify key molecules and significant biological processes in LOC441461 treated gastric cancer cells

Gastric cancer (GC) remains one of the leading cancers globally with a high prevalence and high mortality rate. Currently, Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) LOC441461 have been found to be related to cancer that regulates cell growth, apoptosis, and metastasis. However, the mechanisms of LOC441461 treated gastric cancer are still unknown. In this study, we aim to identify the key molecules and signaling pathways by analyzing the RNA-seq data. The GSE193700 was created by the Illumina NovaSeq 6000 (Homo sapiens). The KEGG and GO analyses indicated that Human papillomavirus infection and Epstein-Barr virus infection were the main biological processes during the knockdown of LOC441461 in gastric cancer. Moreover, we figured out several interactive genes including STAT1, IFIH1, ISG15, IRF7, IRF1, MX1, DDX58, IFIT1, RSAD2, and IFIT3. Our study may provide new knowledge on the treatment of gastric cancer.
