Abstract

Gastric cancer (GC) is one of the most common causes of cancer‑related mortality worldwide. Despite remarkable progress in the diagnosis and treatment of GC, a large number of cases are diagnosed as advanced GC, and treatment failure occurs. Emerging evidence has shown that non‑coding RNAs (ncRNAs), especially microRNAs (miRNAs) and long non‑coding RNAs (lncRNAs), play a vital role in the tumorigenesis and development of GC. Moreover, the pathogenesis of GC is closely related to aberrant activation of the Wnt (Wingless‑type MMTV integration site family) signaling pathway. ncRNAs serve as potential novel biomarkers in the clinical examination, prognosis and therapeutic targeting of GC. Furthermore, dysregulation of ncRNAs has been demonstrated to affect tumor initiation, epithelial‑mesenchymal transition (EMT), angiogenesis, tumor development, invasion, metastasis and resistance to therapy via the Wnt/β‑catenin signaling pathway. This review focuses on the role of ncRNAs in modulating the Wnt/β‑catenin signaling pathway in the pathogenesis of GC, which may provide a reference for the clinical diagnosis and treatment of GC.
