Background: To evaluate SPRED1 and PBRMl expression in patients with gastric cancer and determine the biological relationships of SPRED1 and PBRM1 with the occurrence and development of gastric cancer.
Methods: Tissue specimens of patients with gastric cancer at Jingzhou First People's Hospital were gathered from April 2016 to August 2018. SPRED1 and PBRMl (Baf180) protein expression levels were detected in the excised cancerous tissues and normal tissues (control group) of 80 patients with gastric cancer by immunohistochemical methods.
Results: The positive rates of SPRED1 and PBRMl protein expression in gastric cancer tissues were 55% and 75%, respectively. The positive rates of SPRED1 and PBRMl protein expression in the normal tissues without cancer were 84.6% and 92.3%, respectively. The expression in gastric cancer tissues was significantly lower than that of the control group (p < 0.05). Positive SPRED1 and PBRMl protein expression was related to histological type, depth of infiltration, presence of lymphatic metastasis, pathological grade, and clinical TNM phase (p < 0.05). SPRED1 expression and PBRMl expression were positively correlated.
Conclusions: The expression of SPRED1 and PBRMl in gastric cancer tissues is low, unrelated to age and declines with increasing pathological grade and clinical phase of the gastric cancer tissues. SPRED1 and PBRMl expression may be related to the biological behavior of tumors, and the two may have a synergistic effect.

This study enrolled 10 patients diagnosed with premalignant lesions and early-stage gastric cardia adenocarcinoma (GCA), confirmed through endoscopic examination. These patients were subjected to next-generation sequencing (NGS) using a customized 1123-gene panel to identify genetic alterations and signaling pathways. The results were compared to stage IIB to IV GCA samples from the cancer genome atlas (TCGA) and a cohort of Hong Kong patients.

Rationale: Solitary fibrous tumors (SFTs) are spindle cell tumors that typically occur in the pleura and peritoneum, but very rarely in the stomach. To our best knowledge, there are only 10 cases reported in English literature. We reported a case of primary stomach SFT and summarized the characteristics of all previous cases, suggesting that pathologists and surgeons should include this disease in the differential diagnosis list of primary mesenchymal tumor of the stomach.

Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) positive gastric cancer (GC) shows a robust response to the combined therapy based HER2-targeted therapy. The application of these therapies is highly dependent on the evaluation of tumor HER2 status. However, there are many risks and challenges in HER2 assessment in GC.

Background: Few studies have explored the genetic changes and clinicopathological features of stage II/III gastric cancer (GC) patients with no tumor recurrence, early recurrence, or late recurrence after curative surgery.
Methods: In this study, 376 patients who underwent curative surgery for stage II/III GC were analyzed. The clinical and genetic features of patients with no recurrence, early recurrence (<2 years), and late recurrence (≥2 years) were compared.

Importance: Upper gastrointestinal cancers such as gastric and esophageal cancers are rare malignancies with poor prognosis because it is usually diagnosed in latter stages. Presenting symptoms are frequently presumed pregnancy related rather than malignancy related. This review will raise awareness to consider these aggressive cancers in evaluating gastrointestinal complaints during pregnancy.
