Summary: GRB10 and its family members GRB7 and GRB14 are important adaptor proteins that regulate cellular functions by interacting with tyrosine kinase receptors and other phosphorus-containing amino acid proteins. Abnormal expression of GRB10 is closely related to cancer occurrence and development. In gastric cancer, high expression of GRB10 is associated with poorer overall survival. Knockdown of GRB10 inhibits proliferation and migration ability in gastric cancer, and miR-379-5p can downregulate GRB10 expression to suppress gastric cancer development. Therefore, miR-379-5p and GRB10 are potential targets for gastric cancer treatment.

Summary: The study revealed that overexpression of TRIM37 in gastric cancer is significantly correlated with tumor invasion, T/N staging, histology, and recurrence rate, predicting worse outcomes. Knockdown of TRIM37 increased apoptosis and suppressed migration and invasion in TRIM37-overexpressing gastric cancer cells.

Summary: In this study, dysregulation of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway was found to be critically involved in gastric cancer progression. The scaffold protein RACK1 deficiency, promoted by UBE2T, was identified as a significant factor in GC progression. A novel UBE2T inhibitor, M435-1279, was discovered to effectively inhibit the hyperactivation of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway, providing a promising therapeutic option for GC patients.

Summary: This study discovers that FAM153B is downregulated in gastric cancer tissues and positively associated with unfavorable survival. Enrichment pathways of FAM153B involve regulation of signaling receptor activity, DNA replication, cell cycle transition, and chromosomal regulation. Additionally, the protein expression level of FAM153B is related to the degree of immune cell infiltration.

Summary: Gastric cancer is a deadly disease with high incidence and mortality rates. MESP2, a transcription factor, is found to be decreased in gastric cancer tissue and cell lines. Overexpression of MESP2 can suppress the growth, migration, and invasion of gastric cancer cells, and it achieves this by regulating the SKP2/p27 axis.

Summary: The study demonstrated that MTFR2 is up-regulated in gastric cancer, and its overexpression is associated with poor prognosis. Downregulation of MTFR2 inhibited proliferation, migration, and invasion of gastric cancer cells both in vitro and in vivo. Bioinformatics analysis identified potential factors contributing to MTFR2 overexpression. Function and pathway enrichment analyses revealed involvement of MTFR2 in chromosome segregation, catalytic activity, cell cycle, and ribonucleic acid transport.
