Article Abstract
Abnormal DNA methylation is an epigenetic mechanism that promotes gastric carcinogenesis. While the abnormal methylation at promoter regions has been characterized for many genes, the function of DNA methylation marks at distal regulatory regions in gastric cancer remains poorly described. Here, we performed RNA-seq, MBD-seq, and H3K27ac ChIP-seq on gastric tissues and cell lines to understand the epigenetic changes in the distal as well as the proximal regulatory regions. In total, 257,651 significant DMRs (Differentially methylated regions) were identified in gastric cancer, and the majority of these DMRs were located in the intergenic, intronic, and non-coding RNA regions. We identified the aberrant expression of many genes and lncRNAs due to changes in DNA methylation. Furthermore, we profiled the molecular subtype-specific methylation patterns in gastric cancer to characterize subtype-specific regulators that undergo DNA methylation changes. Our findings provide insights for understanding methylation changes at distal regulatory regions and reveal novel epigenetic targets in gastric cancer.

Background: Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) play a pivotal role in the treatment of advanced gastric cancer (GC). However, the biomarkers used to predict ICI efficacy are limited due to their reliance on single or static tumor characteristics. This study aims to develop a machine learning (ML) model that incorporates dynamic changes in clinlabomics data to optimize the predictive accuracy of ICI efficacy.

In oxaliplatin-resistant gastric cancer (GC), multi-omics profiling combined with organoid libraries reveals altered metabolic pathways associated with chemoresistance. We identify a novel lactylation modification at K115 of Poly(RC)-binding protein 2 (PCBP2K115la), which confers functional oxaliplatin resistance. Mechanistic studies demonstrate that the long non-coding RNA BASP1-AS1 assembles a complex containing Unc-51 Like Autophagy Activating Kinase 1 (ULK1) and lactate dehydrogenase A (LDHA), thereby activating LDHA enzymatic activity to increase lactate production.

Protein phosphorylation modification plays an important role in regulating protein activity. Astrocyte elevated gene-1 (AEG-1), an adaptor protein, promotes the progression of various types of cancers by protein-protein interactions. We previously demonstrated that AEG-1 promoted the growth and metastasis of gastric cancer by upregulating the expression of oncogenic eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E (eIF4E).
