Introduction: TNM and histological subtype are the most important prognostic criteria in gastric cancer. In this study, we have tried to identify an immunohistochemical protein profile involved in gastric recurrence after a radical surgery.
Materials And Methods: In this paper, protein panels involved in gastric carcinogenesis and progression was analyzed by immunohistochemistry expression: p53, Ki-67, Bcl-2, COX-2, c-erb-B2, EPO-R, E-cadherin, and β-catenin in 44 gastrectomy samples coming from gastrectomy pieces of patients diagnosed and operated on adenocarcinoma of the stomach followed by adjuvant treatment based on MacDonald chemoradiation regimen. An immunostaining profile that could predict the relapse after the end of adjuvant treatment was tried to find. These results have shown that the expression of the adverse prognostic protein profile based on positive p53 immunohistochemical expression and non-conserved E-cadherin/B-catenin staining is associated with tumor recurrence and a poor disease-free survival in operated gastric cancer patients with curative intent followed by adjuvant chemoradiation according to MacDonald's regimen. A protein profile based on immunohistochemical expression of p53 and E-cadherin-B-catenin that has a significant correlation to disease-free survival was identified in gastric cancer samples.

Background: Adenocarcinoma of the esophagogastric junction (AEGJ) is a highly aggressive tumor that frequently metastasizes to the liver. Understanding the cellular and molecular mechanisms that drive this process is essential for developing effective therapies.
Methods: We employed single-cell RNA sequencing to analyze the tumor heterogeneity and microenvironmental landscape in patients with AEGJ liver metastases.

Gastric cancer continues to be a leading global health concern, with current therapeutic approaches requiring significant improvement. While the disruption of iron metabolism in the advancement of gastric cancer has been well-documented, the underlying regulatory mechanisms remain largely unexplored. Additionally, the complement C5a-C5aR pathway has been identified as a crucial factor in gastric cancer development.

Purpose: This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of prophylactic hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (P-HIPEC) in patients with locally advanced gastric cancer (AGC) after laparoscopic radical gastrectomy. Additionally, it explores how the frequency and timing of P-HIPEC influence treatment outcomes.
Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 227 patients with locally AGC who underwent laparoscopic surgery at Maoming People's Hospital from January 2016 to December 2022.

Chemoresistance is a major obstacle in the treatment of gastric cancer (GC). Notably, aberrant expression of microRNAs (miRs) is closely related to tumor development and progression. In the present study, the role of miR-424-5p in the chemoresistance of GC was investigated.

Objectives: Gastric cancer (GC) is one of the most malignant tumors. Mounting studies highlighted gastric cancer stem cells (GCSCs) were responsible for the failure of treatment due to recurrence and drug resistance of advanced GC. However, targeted therapy against GCSC for improving GC prognosis suffered from lack of suitable models and molecular targets in terms of personalized medicine.
