Background  Gastric cancer (GC) is a globally prevalent cancer, ranking fifth for incidence and fourth for mortality worldwide. The N6-methyladenosine (m 6 A) related long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) were widely investigated in recent studies. Nevertheless, the underlying prognostic implication and tumor immune mechanism of m 6 A-related lncRNA in GC remain unknown.    Methods  We systematically assessed the m 6 A modification expression of 407 GC clinical samples based on 23 m 6 A regulators and comprehensively associated these genes with lncRNAs. Then, we constructed a m 6 A-related lncRNA prognostic signature (m 6 A-LPS) to evaluate both status and prognosis of the disease. Immune-related mechanisms were explored via dissecting tumor-infiltrating cells as well as applying tumor immune dysfunction and the exclusion algorithm. Furthermore, we validated the latent regulative mechanism of m 6 A-related lncRNA in GC cell lines.    Results  The m 6 A-LPS containing nine hub lncRNAs was built, which possessed a superior capability to predict the outcomes of GC patients. Meanwhile, we found an intimate correlation between the m 6 A-LPS and tumor infiltrating cells, and that the low-risk group had a higher expression of immune checkpoints and responsed more to immunotherapy than the high-risk group. Clinically, these crucial lncRNAs expression levels were verified in ten pairs of GC samples. In in vitro experiments, the abilities of migration and proliferation were significantly enhanced via downregulating the lncRNA AC026691.1. Both migrative and proliferative capabilities of tumor cells were significantly enhanced via downregulating the lncRNA AC026691.1. in vitro.    Conclusions  Collectively, the m 6 A-LPS could provide a novel prediction insight into the prognosis of GC patients and serve as an independent clinical factor for GC. These m 6 A-related lncRNAs might remodel the tumor microenvironment and affect the anti-cancer ability of immune checkpoint blockers. Importantly, lncRNA AC026691.1 could inhibit both migration and proliferation of GC by means of FTO regulation.
