Background Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are increasingly investigated in numerous carcinomas containing gastric cancer (GC). The aim of our research is to inquire about the expression profile and role of LBX2-AS1 in GC. Methods The expressions of LBX2-AS1, miR-219a-2-3p, FUS and LBX2 were measured by qRT-PCR. Western blot evaluated FUS and LBX2 protein levels. Cell proliferation and apoptosis were, respectively, evaluated by CCK-8, colony formation, EdU, flow cytometry and TUNEL assays. FISH and subcellular fractionation assays examined the position of LBX2-AS1. The binding between genes were certified by RIP, RNA pull-down, ChIP and luciferase reporter assays. Pearson correlation analysis analyzed the association of genes. Kaplan-Meier method detected the relationship of LBX2-AS1 expression with overall survival. Results The up-regulation of LBX2-AS1 in GC tissues and cells was verified. Function assays proved that LBX2-AS1 down-regulation restricted the proliferation ability. Then, we unveiled the LBX2-AS1/miR-219a-2-3p/FUS axis. Additionally, LBX2-AS1 positively regulated LBX2 mRNA stability via FUS. LBX2 transcriptionally modulated LBX2-AS1. In the end, rescue and in vivo experiments validated the whole regulatory mechanism. Conclusion LBX2-AS1/miR-219a-2-3p/FUS/LBX2 positive feedback loop mainly affected the proliferation and apoptosis abilities of GC cells, offering novel therapeutic targets for the treatment of patients with GC. Keywords Gastric cancer (GC) • LBX2 antisense RNA 1 (LBX2-AS1) • miR-219a-2-3p • Fused in sarcoma (FUS) • Ladybird homeobox 2 (LBX2)

A coherent dual-wavelength frequency-modulated continuous-wave (FMCW) lidar utilizing dual-heterodyne mixing which permits efficient phase noise cancellation has been proposed. Consistent ranging resolution about 1.4 × 10−6 over distances beyond tens of intrinsic coherence length is achieved.
