To investigate the expression and clinical significance of long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) in gastric cancer, we applied microarray analysis to obtain expression profiles of protein-coding genes and lncRNAs in tumor and paired adjacent nontumor tissues. We found that 41 lncRNAs were up-regulated and 31 lncRNAs were down-regulated more than 2-fold in gastric cancer versus noncancerous tissues (ratio >2.0, P < .01). We established a coexpression network of the differentially expressed lncRNAs and targeted coding genes that included 17 lncRNAs and 16 coding genes. Because the results of microarray analysis showed that lncRNA M26317 was up-regulated in gastric cancer tissues, we examined the expression level of M26317 in 103 gastric cancer tissues by reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction and 436 gastric cancer tissues by in situ hybridization. Our data confirmed that M26317 was up-regulated in gastric cancer tissues. Moreover, expression of M26317 correlated with patient age, size of tumor, Lauren's classification, depth of invasion, lymph node and distant metastasis, TNM stage, and poor prognosis (P < .05), but was not associated with sex, location of tumor, and differentiation (P > .05). M26317 may have an important role in malignant transformation and metastasis of gastric cancer.

Background: This study aims to develop an oral microbiota-based model for gastric cancer (GC) risk stratification and prognosis prediction.
Methods: Oral microbial markers for GC prognosis and risk stratification were identified from 99 GC patients, and their predictive potential was validated on an external dataset of 111 GC patients. The identified bacterial markers were used to construct a Deep Neural Network (DNN) model, a Random Forest (RF) model, and a Support Vector Machine (SVM) model for predicting GC prognosis.

Gastric cancer is a common malignant tumor of the digestive tract, and its treatment remains a significant challenge. In recent years, the role of various immune cells in the tumor microenvironment in cancer progression and treatment has gained increasing attention. Immunotherapy, primarily based on immune checkpoint inhibitors, has notably improved the prognosis of patients with gastric cancer; however, challenges regarding therapeutic efficacy persist.

Erythropoietin-producing hepatocellular (Eph) receptors comprise the largest group of surface receptors and are responsible for cellular signals. Eph/ephrin signaling has been identified to play a role in key cancer development and progression processes, especially in the upper gastrointestinal tract. The Eph/ephrin system has been described as a tumor suppressor in duodenal cancer, while in esophageal, gastric, hepatic, and pancreatic cancer, the system has been related to tumor progression.
