Objective: To discuss the expression of long noncoding RNA TUG1 (IneRNA-TUG1) in gastric carcinoma (GC) and its effects on the transferring and invading capacity of gastric carcinoma cells. Methods: Forty cases of carcinoma tissue and para-carcinoma tissue were selected from GC patients who underwent surgical removal in Zhejiang Provincial Hospital of Chinese Traditional Medicine and Wenzhou Central Hospital from January, 2013 to December, 2014; the expressing level of IncRNA-TUG I in GC and para-C tissues was detected by applying the qRT-PCR technique. The correlation between IncRNA-TUG1 expression and patients' clinical data was classified and analyzed. SGC-7901 cells were transfected using IncRNA-TUG1 specific siRNA. Changes of the transferring and invading capacity of siRNA-transfected SGC-7901 cells were scratch-tested and transwell-detected. qRT-PCR was applied to detect the expression level of microRNA-144 after IncRNA-TUG1 was silenced. Changes of c-Met mRNA and protein expressions was detected by qRT-PCR and western -blot test. Results: The expression level of lneRNA-TUG1 in GC tissue was significant higher than that in para-C tissue (P<0.05) and the high expression level of IncRNA-TUG1 in GC tissue was significantly correlated with tumor lymph nodes metastasis and advance TNM phasing (/'<0.05). The transferring and invading capacity of SGC-7901 cells was highly inhibited after being transfected by IncRNA-TUG1 specific siRNA (P<0.05). The results of qRT-PCR and western -blot proved that the expression of microRNA-144 was significantly boosted and the expression level of c-Met mRNA and protein was inhibited after IncRNA-TUG1 was silenced (P<0.05). Conclusions: IncRNA-TUG1 shows an up -regulated expression in GC tissue and that bears a correlation with clinicopathological features of malignant tumor. IncRNATUGI can promote the transferring and invading capacity of GC by inhibiting the pathway of microRNA-144/c-Met.
