hnRNPA2B1 promoted cancer stemness‐like properties in vitro. (A) The expression of hnRNPA2B1 was correlated with mRNAsi scores in the TCGA GC dataset. (B‐C) qPCR and IF illustrated that regulation of hnRNPA2B1 resulted in corresponding changes in the expression of GCSC surface markers and pluripotent transcription factors in SGC7901ADR, SGC7901VCR, and parental SGC7901 cells. *P < 0.05, ** P < 0.01, *** P < 0.001, ns, not significant.
