Gastric cancer (GC) is the most common gastrointestinal malignancy, causing cancer-related deaths in East Asia. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs aberrantly expressed in human tumors. In this study, we aim to investigate the roles of miR-204 in the epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT)-associated chemosensitivity.
