The stomach is an important digestive organ with various biological functions. However, because of the complexity of its cellular and glandular composition, its precise cellular biology has yet to be elucidated. In this study, we conducted single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) and subcellular-level spatial transcriptomics analysis of the human stomach and constructed the largest dataset to date: a stomach encyclopedia. This dataset consists of approximately 380,000 cells from scRNA-seq and the spatial transcriptome, enabling integrated analyses of transcriptional and spatial information of gastric and metaplastic cells. This analysis identified LEFTY1 as an uncharacterized stem cell marker, which was confirmed through lineage tracing analysis. A wide variety of cell-cell interactions between epithelial and stromal cells, including PDGFRABMP4WNT5A fibroblasts, was highlighted in the developmental switch of intestinal metaplasia. Our extensive dataset will function as a fundamental resource in investigations of the stomach, including studies of development, aging, and carcinogenesis.

Background: It has been demonstrated that nintedanib can inhibit the proliferation of gastric cancer cells, but the specific mechanism of action is unclear.
Objective: Investigating the changes of key factors involved in gene transcription and post-transcriptional regulation during the process of treating gastric cancer with nintedanib.
Methods: In this study, we performed transcriptome sequencing on gastric cancer cell groups treated with nintedanib and control groups.
Prognostic significance of NUAK1 and its association with immune infiltration in stomach adenocarcinoma.

Department of Gastroenterology, Affiliated Hospital of Jiangsu University, No. 438 Jiefang Road, Zhenjiang, Jiangsu, China.
Background: Stomach adenocarcinoma (STAD) represents a significant global health burden, accounting for a considerable proportion of cancer-related mortalities, and NUAK1, a protein kinase, plays a crucial role in cellular metabolism, cell cycle regulation, migration, and tumor progression. However, its relationship with prognosis and immune infiltration in STAD has not been thoroughly investigated.
Methods: RNA sequencing data from the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and Genotypic Tissue Expression Project (GTEx) databases were employed to assess disparities in NUAK1 expression between STAD tumour and normal tissues.
The role of 1400 plasma metabolites in gastric cancer: A bidirectional Mendelian randomization study and metabolic pathway analysis.

Article Synopsis
- The study explores the causal relationship between plasma metabolites and gastric cancer (GC) using a bidirectional 2-sample Mendelian randomization approach with data from European individuals.
- It identifies specific metabolites that are positively and negatively associated with GC, such as 2s, 3R-dihydroxybutyrate linked positively and asparagine negatively associated.
- The research also highlights significant metabolic pathways linked to GC, emphasizing the need for further investigation into these relationships.

Ethnopharmacological Relevance: Nidus Vespae, an animal-derived traditional Chinese medicine, has a long-standing history in treating inflammatory conditions and tumor-related diseases. Notably, Nidus Vespae decoction (NVD) has been shown to inhibit the proliferation of gastric cancer cells, although the underlying mechanisms remain unclear.
Objective: This study aimed to elucidate the efficacy and mechanisms by which NVD exerts its therapeutic effects on gastric cancer.
Screening Antioxidant Components in Yiwei Decoction Using Spectrum-Effect Relationship and Network Pharmacology.
J Anal Methods Chem
October 2024
Kunshan Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Kunshan, China.
Yiwei decoction (YWD) is a classic prescription with the function of nourishing stomach yin. In this study, the effective components of antioxidant activity of YWD and its possible mechanism were discussed from the point of view of spectral effect relationship and network pharmacology. Firstly, the fingerprints of 10 batches of YWD were established by UPLC-PDA technique, and the 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl-hydrazyl radical (DPPH) scavenging rate and total antioxidant capacity (T-AOC) were used as the indicators for antioxidant activity in vitro.
