Article Synopsis
- The study aims to explore how the NGF family and their receptors are expressed in gastric carcinoma compared to normal gastric tissue and to understand their impact on cancer development.
- The methods involved isolating RNA from gastric cancer and normal gastric tissues, conducting hybridization on Atlas Array membranes, and analyzing the differential expression of mRNA through specialized software.
- Results showed that while both NGF family and Trk family receptors were found in both tissue types, their expression was notably down-regulated in gastric carcinoma, particularly NT-3 and BDGF, suggesting they may play a critical role in cancer cell death and the progression of gastric cancer.
