Gastric cancer (GC) is a highly invasive course and has a very poor prognosis. Because there are no obvious symptoms in the early stage, most patients with GC are diagnosed in the late stage. The effective diagnosis, prognosis biomarkers and treatment targets of GC can solve this problem to a great extent. Although researchers have done a lot of research on GC in recent years, the relationship between the competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) network of ferroptosis-related genes and the GC remains to be explored. Therefore, the research done in this paper has become particularly important. Download the expression data and clinical survival data about stomach adenocarcinoma from UCSC Xena and The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) platform. Using bioinformatics tools to screen lncRNAs, miRNAs and mRNAs that are differentially expressed in GC samples and normal samples and related to the prognosis of GC. Then, screening lncRNAs, miRNAs and mRNAs with targeted relationships from the Starbase database. Subsequently, correlation analysis and survival analysis were carried out respectively. Finally, we get a ceRNA network related to the prognosis of GC patients. Cell experiments confirmed the results obtained by bioinformatics. This is critical for the discovery of the diagnosis, prognosis biomarkers and treatment targets.
