Article Abstract
In the present study, proteins differentially expressed between gastric cancer tissue and para‑tumoral normal gastric tissues were screened, and the function of the highly expressed protein C1QTNF6 in gastric carcinoma was investigated. The differential expression of mRNAs extracted from the tumor and adjacent tissues was analyzed using GeneChip assay. An AGS si‑C1QTNF6 cell line was constructed using shRNA‑C1QTNF6 lentivirus. The cell invasion and migration ability of C1QTNF6‑knockdown cells were determined by Transwell chamber migration and wound healing assays, respectively. The effects of C1QTNF6 on AGS cell cycle distribution and apoptosis were detected using a FACScan flow cytometer. The results demonstrated that the expression of 109 genes was increased and the expression of 129 was decreased in tumor tissues. Among these genes, the C1QTNF6 gene was highly expressed in tumor tissues and the AGS7901 cell line. C1QTNF6‑knockdown decreased the cell growth, and the proliferative and migration ability, as well as increasing the apoptosis of gastric carcinoma cells. In addition, the number of AGS cells in the G2/M phase was significantly increased after 5 days of C1QTNF6‑shRNA lentivirus infection. The results of the present study indicated that C1QTNF6 serves an important role in the development of gastric carcinoma. C1QTNF6 is involved in promoting the proliferation and migration, and in reducing the apoptosis of gastric carcinoma cells. These results provided a potential therapeutic target for the treatment of gastric carcinoma.

Primary gastric squamous cell carcinoma (GSCC) or gastric adenosquamous carcinoma (GASC) is an uncommon histologic type for which no standard treatment has been established. The prognosis is poor, and there are few reports of effective treatment. Here, we experienced a case of GASC that was diagnosed preoperatively as GSCC and could be operated on after successful preoperative chemotherapy with pembrolizumab, 5-fluorouracil, and cisplatin.

Introduction And Aim: Gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (GEP-NETs) are rare neoplasms originating in neuroendocrine cells from the gastric mucosa and submucosa, small intestine, large intestine, rectum, and pancreas. Our aim was to describe their histopathologic, endoscopic, and clinical characteristics and the experience with these tumors at a tertiary care hospital center in the Colombian Southwest.
Materials And Methods: A retrospective, analytic, observational, and descriptive study included 93 patients diagnosed with GEP-NETs, within the time frame of 2018 and 2022.

Cancer metastasis remains the leading cause of cancer-related deaths, highlighting the urgent need for therapies targeting metastatic processes. Dysregulated calcium (Ca) signaling is increasingly linked to metastasis and offers a promising, underexplored therapeutic target. The zebrafish xenograft model has emerged as a powerful tool for studying cancer due to its optical transparency, genetic similarity to humans, and rapid development.

Accurate identification of tumor-specific markers is vital for developing chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-based therapies. While cell surface antigens are seldom cancer-restricted, their post-translational modifications (PTMs), particularly aberrant carbohydrate structures, offer attractive alternatives. Among these, the sialyl-Tn (STn) antigen stands out for its prevalent presence in various epithelial tumors.
