Summary: The study revealed that EIF3H is upregulated in malignant melanoma and correlated with tumor stage and risk of lymphatic metastasis. Silencing EIF3H in MM cells significantly suppresses cell proliferation, promotes cell apoptosis, induces cell cycle arrest, and restrains cell motility. The effects of EIF3H knockdown were also verified in mice xenograft model, showing slower tumor growth and smaller tumor volume.

Summary: IL-33 has antiproliferative and proapoptotic effects on gastric cancer cell lines, while it stimulates proliferation and reduces apoptosis in normal epithelial cell lines. These effects may be mediated through the regulation of cell cycle gene expression.

Summary: Gastric cancer is a common and deadly gastrointestinal malignancy, and the development of multidrug resistance poses a challenge to successful treatment. This study investigated the effects of estradiol cypionate (ECP) on gastric cancer in both in vitro and in vivo models. The findings demonstrated that ECP inhibited cancer cell proliferation, induced apoptosis, and caused cell cycle arrest. The mechanism by which ECP induced apoptosis was associated with the downregulation of AKT protein expression through increased ubiquitination modification levels of AKT, ultimately inhibiting the over-activation of the PI3K-AKT-mTOR signaling pathway. In vivo experiments also showed that ECP significantly inhibited tumor growth, suggesting its potential clinical application as an anti-tumor compound for gastric cancer treatment.

Summary: This study found that miR-4268 is downregulated and KRT80 is upregulated in gastric cancer tissues and cells. Interfering with KRT80 expression inhibits proliferation and migration of gastric cancer cells and promotes apoptosis. MiR-4268 targets KRT80 and negatively regulates its expression, and it may suppress gastric cancer through inhibiting the PI3K/AKT/JNK pathway by targeting KRT80.

Summary: This study aimed to determine the effects and mechanism of action of muscone on the biological activity of gastric cancer cell lines SGC-7901 and MGC-803, and found that muscone can suppress the biological activity of SGC-7901 and MGC-803 gastric cancer cells in vitro by regulating miRNA-145.

Summary: This study investigates the interplay between CCDC43 and FHL1 in gastric cancer cell growth and apoptosis. The results demonstrate that CCDC43 physically interacts with FHL1 and their expression levels are negatively correlated. Moreover, up-regulation of CCDC43 leads to a decrease in FHL1 levels, while knockdown of CCDC43 results in decreased stability of FHL1 protein. Importantly, co-expression of CCDC43 and FHL1 significantly inhibits the growth, metastasis, and invasion of gastric cancer cells, and knockdown of CCDC43 combined with overexpression of FHL1 inhibits cell proliferation and migration, and induces apoptosis in vitro and in vivo.

Summary: CCNI2 is abundantly expressed in gastric cancer and plays a crucial role in the malignant progression of the disease by affecting proliferation, apoptosis, and migration. There is an interaction between CCNI2 and HDGF, and knockdown of CCNI2 can attenuate the promoting effects of HDGF overexpression in gastric cancer cells. These findings suggest that CCNI2 may be a potential therapeutic target for human gastric cancer.

Summary: The study found that SNHG11 acts as an oncogene, while miR-194 serves as a tumor suppressor in gastric cancer development. Silencing SNHG11 and upregulating miR-184 significantly decreased gastric cancer cell growth, proliferation, and migration, and increased apoptosis levels.

Summary: Long non-coding RNAs, such as OGFRP1, play a crucial role in gastric cancer research. High expression of OGFRP1 promotes tumor progression by activating the AKT/mTOR pathway. Targeting OGFRP1 could be a potential new strategy for clinical treatment of human gastric cancer.

Summary: Gastric cancer is a leading cause of cancer death worldwide. This study found that expressing of EP2 receptor is significantly elevated in gastric cancer, and inhibiting EP2 receptor can reduce tumor growth and induce apoptosis in gastric cancer cells. Knockdown of EP2 receptor or using an antagonist also increased the sensitivity of gastric cancer cells to chemotherapy. CAV1 was identified as a downstream target of EP2 receptor in gastric cancer.

Summary: CPNE1 is upregulated in gastric cancer and its high expression is associated with poor prognosis. Silencing CPNE1 inhibits tumor proliferation and induces cell apoptosis. CPNE1 knockdown deactivates the DDIT3-FOS-MKNK2 axis, leading to inhibition of the MAPK pathway and suppression of gastric cancer growth.
