Chronic atrophic gastritis (CAG) is a precancerous lesion characterised by gastric mucosal atrophy and inflammation. Identifying key molecular mechanisms and potential therapeutic targets is essential to improve patient outcomes. Key modules and differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were recognised in the GSE153224 dataset using weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) and examination of differential expression.

Article Synopsis
  • The treatment of gastric cancer (GC) is a significant global health challenge, and N6-methyladenosine (m6A) has been found to play a key role in tumor progression.
  • METTL5, a methyltransferase linked to m6A, has been shown to be upregulated in GC, suggesting that higher levels of METTL5 are associated with poor patient outcomes and advanced cancer characteristics.
  • The study conducted a series of experiments including cell assays and animal models, demonstrating that METTL5 promotes GC cell proliferation, migration, and invasion, while also affecting sphingomyelin metabolism and the cell's sensitivity to cisplatin.

Objective: With the prevalence of next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology, a large number of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have attracted tremendous attention and have been the topic of extensive research on gastric cancer (GC). It was revealed that lncRNAs not only participate in the transduction of various signaling pathways, thus influencing GC genesis and development, but also have the potential for GC diagnosis. Therefore, we aimed to conduct a meta-analysis of previous studies on GC.

Background: Gastric cancer (GC) progression is related with gene regulations.

Objectives: This study explored underlying regulatory axis of circRNA PVT1 (circPVT1) in GC.

Methods: GC cell lines were detected for circPVT1 expression with the normal mucous epithelial cell GES-1 as control.

Immune checkpoint blockade has attracted a lot of attention in the treatment of human malignant tumors. We are trying to establish a prognostic model of gastric cancer (GC) based on the expression profile of immunoregulatory factor-related genes. Based on the TCGA database, we identified 234 differentially expressed immunoregulatory factors.

Background: Gastric Cancer (GC) is the fifth most common malignancy tumor and the third cause of cancer-related death around the world. Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) such as programmed cell death-1 (PD-1) antibodies play an active role in tumor therapy. A recent study reveals that Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway is negatively correlated with T-cell infiltration in tumor microenvironment (TME), thereby influencing the therapeutic efficacy of PD-1 antibody.

LMX1A (LIM homeobox transcription factor 1α) is a tumor suppressor protein. Our previous study has shown that (""), being upregulated in human gastric cancer (GC), targets LMX1A to promote GC cell progression. Through searching () database, we identified that is the (ceRNA) of putatively targets .

Gastric cancer (GC) is one of the most frequent malignancies worldwide. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are found to be largely implicated in various cancers, including GC. However, the function of lncRNA VCAN antisense RNA 1 (VCAN-AS1) in GC remains unclear.

Our research group has showed that the LIM homeobox transcription factor 1 alpha (LMX1A) is inactivated in gastric cancers. Overexpression of LMX1A inhibits tumor growth. However, the mechanisms remains unclear.

Objectives: As one of the most life-threatening malignancies, gastric cancer is the third contributor of cancer mortalities globally. Increasing studies have proven the regulatory roles of lncRNAs in the development of diverse malignant tumours. But little is known about its function and molecular mechanism in gastric carcinoma.

Gastric cancer (GC) is a common malignancy. Developing novel and efficient anti-GC agents is urgent. GSK1059615 is a PI3K (phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase) and mTOR (mammalian target of rapamycin) dual inhibitor.

LIM homeobox transcription factor 1, alpha (LMX1A) is downregulated in human gastric cancer (GC), functioning as a tumor suppressor. The current study aims to identify specific microRNA that can regulate LMX1A expression. By sequence analysis of LMX1A mRNA 3'-untranslated region (3'-UTR), we show that microRNA-9 (miR-9) putatively targets human LMX1A.
