Gastric cancer continues to be a common cancer in the world with high incidence and mortality. Accumulating evidence has implicated long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) in gastric cancer progression. Here, this study identified the potential role of a novel lncRNA, LINC00629 in gastric cancer and to elucidate the underlying mechanism. Initially, microarray-based gene expression profiling of gastric cancer was employed to identify differentially expressed genes. Next, the expression of LINC00629, microRNA-196b-5p (miR-196b-5p) and aquaporin 4 (AQP4) in clinical gastric cancer tissues was determined and the cell line presenting with the lowest LINC00629 expression was selected. The interaction among LINC00629, miR-196b-5p, and AQP4 was identified. Expression of LINC00629, miR-196b-5p, and AQP4 in gastric cancer cells were altered and then biological behaviors of gastric cancer cells were assessed by 5-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine and Transwell assays. Tumor formation in vivo was evaluated in nude mice. In gastric cancer, expression of LINC00629 and AQP4 was downregulated, and expression of miR-196b-5p was upregulated. Proliferation, invasion, and migration of gastric cancer cells were reduced after overexpression of LINC00629. LINC00629 competitively bound to miR-196b-5p, while AQP4 was a target of miR-196b-5p. Either downregulating miR-196b-5p or upregulating AQP4 could restrain the development of gastric cancer in vitro. LINC00629 overexpression repressed the growth of transplanted tumors in vivo. Taken together, LINC00629 competitively bound to miR-196b-5p to upregulate AQP4 expression, thereby inhibiting gastric cancer progression. Therefore, understanding of this mechanism may help to improve gastric cancer treatment.
