cancer has been always in a great attention in the field of molecular biology. by applying    large-scale tools such as advanced proteomics, cancer diagnosis and treatment have been improved greatly since. cancers of esophagus, gastric, and colon accounted for major health problem globally. biomarker panel could bring out the accuracy for cancer evaluation tests as it can suggest a group of can...

The traditional endpoint for assessing efficacy of chemotherapies for advanced/recurrent gastric cancer is overall survival (OS), but OS requires prolonged follow-up. We investigated whether progression-free survival (PFS) is a valid surrogate for OS. Using individual patient data from the GASTRIC meta-analysis, surrogacy of PFS was assessed through the correlation between the endpoints and thr...

Gastric cancer is the most common cancer in Asia and most developing countries. Despite the use of multimodality therapeutics, it remains the second leading cause of cancer death in the world. To identify the molecular underpinnings of gastric cancer in the Asian population, we applied an RNA-sequencing approach to gastric tumor and noncancerous specimens, generating 680 million informative sho...

Objective(s):MiRNAs have been proposed to be key regulators of tumorigenesis, progression and metastasis. However, their effect and prognostic value in gastric cancer is still poorly known. Materials and Methods: Gastric cancer cell lines were cultured. Tissue samples obtained from 36 gastric cancer patients were used for quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) analysis. The tissue microarrays (T...

BACKGROUND The diagnostic value of circulating mRNA for the early detection of primary and recurrent gastric cancer was evaluated. PATIENTS AND METHODS Circulating hTERT and MUC1 mRNA were amplified in the plasma from 52 gastric cancer patients (40 preoperative and 12 postoperative patients) and 20 healthy controls. The results were compared with those of a circulating cancer cell assay and m...

background: cd1d presents glycolipid antigens to invariant natural killer t (inkt) cells. the role of cd1d in the development of peptic ulcer and gastric cancer has not been revealed, yet. objective: to clarify the expression of alternatively spliced variants of cd1d in peptic ulcer and gastric cancer. methods: patients with dyspepsia were selected and divided into three groups of non-ulcer dys...
