Gastric carcinoma is one of the most lethal malignant tumors. As part of our long-term efforts on seeking effective diagnosis and therapeutic strategies of gastric cancer, we present herein novel ternary copper-based chalcogenide nanoplatform CuS-NiS nanomaterials with outstanding photothermal (PT)/photodynamic (PD) property that could effectively suppress human gastric cancer and vo without obvious side effects. We revealed that CuS-NiS induced reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, leading to apoptosis through Bcl-2/Bax pathway of human gastric cancer cells under 808 nm near-infrared (NIR) irradiation. In addition, we also confirmed that the combination of CuS-NiS and 808 nm NIR laser treatment triggered necroptosis by regulating the novel pathway MLKL/CAPG of human gastric cancer cells. Moreover, the CuS-NiS exhibited excellent contrast enhancement according to magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Taken together, we reported new ternary copper-based chalcogenide nanomaterials CuS-NiS, which could be successfully applied for MRI-guided PT/PD therapy of gastric carcinoma through mitochondria-mediated apoptosis and MLKL/CAPG-mediated necroptosis.

Background: Capecitabine, a prodrug of 5-fluorouracil, is extensively utilized for the treatment of metastatic breast cancer, colorectal cancer, and gastric cancer. Nevertheless, there exist limitations in comprehending adverse reactions (AEs) in clinical practice. In this study, we investigated the distribution of AEs associated with capecitabine and explored potential rare adverse reactions by mining the Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS).

Background: Linitis plastica is a challenging diagnosis in the setting of a patient with previous breast cancer.

Case Presentation: We present a case of a 74-year-old Chinese Female with a history of breast cancer who presented with epigastric pain, nausea, early satiety, and weight loss of 5 kg in 3 months. Endoscopic diagnosis of linitis plastica was made, but subsequent management plans were dependent on accurate histological assessment in view of her oncological history.

Background: Advanced gastric tumors are extremely prone to metastasize the in 20%-30% of gastric cancer, and patients have a poor prognosis despite systemic chemotherapy. Peritoneal metastases from gastric cancer usually indicate the end stage of the disease without curative treatment.

Aim: To peritoneal metastasis for facilitating clinical therapy are urgently needed.

Background: Submucosal invasion in early-stage gastric cancer (GC) is a critical determinant of prognosis and treatment strategy, significantly influencing the risk of lymph node metastasis and recurrence. Identifying risk factors associated with submucosal invasion is essential for optimizing patient management and improving outcomes.

Aim: To comprehensively analyze clinical, imaging, and endoscopic characteristics to identify predictors of submucosal invasion in patients with early-stage differentiated GC.

Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is a common type of primary lung cancer that contributes to approximately 15% of cases. It is closely associated with tobacco risk factors. It is also known as a type of lung cancer that has a high mortality rate within a short time due to its rapid growth rate (with tumor doubling time of 30 days) and its tendency to metastasize early in the disease process.
