Objective: Evidence increasingly shows that circular RNAs (circRNAs) are closely associated with tumorigenesis and cancer progression. However, the roles of circRNAs and the underlying mechanism behind these circRNAs in gastric cancer (GC) remain to be elucidated. This study is aimed at conferring a better understanding of GC pathogenesis with a specific focus on circRNA-based ceRNA action.

This study aimed to evaluate the accuracy of ME and compare the accuracy of ME with different optical imaging in detecting EGC.
Methods: A comprehensive literature search was conducted to identify all relevant studies.
Immune infiltration of tumors has been increasingly accepted as a prognostic factor in colon cancer. Here, we aim to develop a novel immune signature, based on estimated immune landscape from tumor transcriptomes, to predict the overall survival of patients with colon cancer. The compositions of 22 immune cell subtypes from three microarray datasets were characterized with the CIBERSORT deconvolution algorithm.
