Despite the importance of radiation therapy as a nonsurgical treatment for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), radiation resistance has always been a concern because of poor patient response and outcomes. Therefore, it is crucial to identify novel targets to increase the effectiveness of radiotherapy and investigate the mechanisms underlying radioresistance. Previously, we demonstrated that Spindlin 1 (SPIN1) was related to tumour initiation and progression.

To investigate these, our study seeks to provide a comprehensive understanding of CHSTs' expression, immune infiltration, and prognostic implications in gastric cancer, utilizing data from the TCGA, GEO and GTEx databases. Furthermore, we conducted experimental validation to elucidate the role of CHST14 specifically in gastric cancer.
