Popis: OBJECTIVES microRNAs (miRNAs) have provided a new opportunity for developing diagnostic biomarkers and effective therapeutic targets in gastric cancer (GC). In this study, we aimed to investigate the relationship between miR-515-3p and GC development. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN The Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database was used for screening genes and miRNA and for 2R analysis. miRNA prediction target genes and screening key genes were analyzed using protein interactions (PPI) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway analysis. A network of miRNA-mRNA interactions was predicated by Cytoscape (v.3.5.1), Institute of Systems Biology & University of California, San Diego & Pasteur institute & University of California, San Francisco. Finally, miR-515-3p levels were detected by quantitative reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) in gastric cells and plasma levels. Then, the association between the expression level of miR-515-3p and the clinicopathological features of patients with GC was further analyzed. OBSERVATIONS AND CONCLUSIONS We found that miR-515-3p was markedly overexpressed in individuals with GC compared with that in normal gastric cells (NCs) and the surgery group (P
