Published: June 2024

Levels of the Wnt pathway components are abnormally altered in gastric cancer cells, leading to malignant cell proliferation, invasion and metastasis, poor prognosis and chemoresistance. Therefore, it is important to understand the mechanism of Wnt signaling pathway in gastric cancer. We systematically reviewed the molecular mechanisms of the Wnt pathway in gastric cancer development; and summarize the progression and the challenges of research on molecular agents of the Wnt pathway.

The role of Helicobacter pylori in the pathogenesis of peptic ulcers and gastric adenocarcinoma is widely known; however, it is not entirely understood how bacterial infection is closely related to the genesis of follicular gastritis and some types of gastric lymphoma. Diagnosing and pathogenic mechanisms follicular gastritis remain challenging. Therefore, this article aims to examine the role of H.
