5‑Ethynyl‑2‑deoxyuridine, Cell Counting Kit‑8, transwell and flow cytometry assays were performed in vitro and the results were further verified using a mouse xenotransplantation and a lung metastasis model in vivo. miR‑3664‑5P was significantly downregulated in GC tissues when compared with normal tissues and positively associated with the prognosis of patients with GC (P<0.001).
