Early diagnosis of gastrointestinal tumors remains a clinical challenge due to their insidious onset. Patatin-like phospholipase domain containing protein 7 (PNPLA7) has been shown to be associated with the occurrence and development of hepatocellular carcinoma. However, the expressions of PNPLA7 in colorectal and gastric cancers remain unclear. The online gene expression profiling interactive analysis and Kaplan-Meier Plotter databases were used for the analysis of the expression of PNPLA7 and the survival curve, respectively. The tumor tissues and their corresponding normal noncancerous tissues from colorectal cancer or gastric cancer patients were collected and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction assay was performed to evaluate the expression of related genes. PNPLA7 was significantly down-regulated in gastric and colorectal cancer tumor tissues compared to adjacent normal tissues. Receiver operating characteristic analysis showed that PNPLA7 could be used as a diagnostic marker for gastric and colorectal tumors. The overall survival of patients with high expression of PNPLA7 was also significantly higher than that of patients with low expression in stomach and rectum adenocarcinoma. Phospholipase PNPLA7 can be used as a positive diagnostic indicator for colorectal and gastric cancers.

Gastric cancer (GC) remains a significant global health challenge, particularly due to the resistance of gastric cancer stem cells (GCSCs) to chemotherapy. This study investigates the role of heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein A2/B1 (HNRNPA2B1), a member of the heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoproteins (hnRNPs), in modulating mitochondrial metabolic reprogramming and contributing to chemoresistance in GCSCs. Through extensive analysis of tumor cancer genome atlas (TCGA) and gene expression omnibus (GEO) datasets, HNRNPA2B1 was identified as a key regulator in GCSCs, correlating with poor prognosis and enhanced resistance to chemoresistance.

Purpose: To analyze the incidence and risk factors of postoperative fever (POF) in gastrointestinal cancer (GIC), discuss the influence of POF on short-term clinical outcomes, and predict anastomotic leakage (AL) based on POF characteristics.
Methods: Overall, 1362 patients that underwent radical resection for GIC were retrospectively analyzed. POF was defined as a postoperative temperature ≥38°C during hospitalization.

The sine oculis homeobox homolog (SIX) family, a group of transcription factors characterized by a conserved DNA-binding homology domain, plays a critical role in orchestrating embryonic development and organogenesis across various organisms, including humans. Comprising six distinct members, from to , each member contributes uniquely to the development and differentiation of diverse tissues and organs, underscoring the versatility of the SIX family. Dysregulation or mutations in genes have been implicated in a spectrum of developmental disorders, as well as in tumor initiation and progression, highlighting their pivotal role in maintaining normal developmental trajectories and cellular functions.

Activation of the p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathways is vital in regulating cell growth, differentiation, apoptosis, and stress response, significantly affecting tumorigenesis and cancer progression. We developed a bioinformatic technique to construct an interactome network-based molecular pathways for genes of interest and quantify their activation levels using high-throughput gene expression data. This study is focused on the p38α, p38β, p38γ, and p38δ kinases, examining their activation levels (PALs) based on transcriptomic data and their associations with survival and drug responsiveness across various cancer types.

Background: Motile sperm domain containing 1 (MOSPD1) is overexpressed in colorectal, prostate, and breast cancers, but its role in gastric cancer (GC) progression remains unclear.
Methods: The effect of MOSPD1 was evaluated using cell viability, colony formation, wound healing, and Transwell assays. Triglyceride and lipid levels were measured in GC cells.
