Gene therapy for gastric cancer: a review.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Gastric cancer is common in China, and its early diagnosis and treatment are difficult. In recent years great progress has been achieved in gene therapy, and a wide array of gene therapy systems for gastric cancer has been investigated. The present article deals with the general principles of gene therapy and then focuses on how these principles may be applied to gastric cancer.

Absract Gastric cancer is the fourth most common cancer and the second leading cause of cancer death. Most cases are sporadic and only 10% of patients, show familial clustering. Among these patients, 1 to 3 % have hereditary diffuse gastric cancer (HDGC), which is autosomal-dominant and present in younger ages. Mutations in Ecadherin gene CDH1 has been identified in 30 to 50% of patient...
متن کاملIncreased Expression of CYP2E1 Gene in Gastric Cancer May be a Molecular Marker for Mazandaran Province Population
Cytochrome P450 2E1 (CYP2E1) enzyme metabolically activates a large number of low molecular mass xenobiotics probably involved in gastric cancer incidence through activation of procarcinogens. North of Iran is amongst high incidence rate areas of gastric carcinoma where environmental carcinogenic compounds, including agricultural pesticides, are massively used. In this report, we quantitatively...

Introduction: Gastric cancer is the second leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide and is yet increasing in Asian countries such as Iran. Despite using chemotherapy for the treatment, its 5-year survival is only about 20%. Thus, the complementary therapy and prevention are the main efforts for its control. In this review article, we attempt to describe the eefective strategies for p...
متن کاملAssociation of rs9122 Polymorphism in the MCC Gene with Increasing the Risk of Gastric Cancer
Abstract Background and Aim: Gastric cancer is one of the most common malignancies in the world. Genetic background is known to be one of the risk factors for gastric cancer. One of the genes that have been shown to be involved in various cancers, including gastric cancer, is the MCC gene. There are many SNPs in the MCC gene in the encoding and regulatory regions, one of which is rs9122, which ...

Background and Objective: Compelling evidence exists in favor of the effectiveness of herbal plant-derived components in cancer treatment; however their exact mechanisms of action are not well understood. Since the alteration of mitogen-activated protein kinase enzymes (MAPKs) has been reported in different cancer types, the present study aimed to investigate the effects of soy isoflavonoid gen...
متن کاملEvaluation of the Prognostic Value and TRIP13 gene Expression in Gastric Cancer
Introduction: Gastric cancer is a major public health issue worldwide. The factors that initiate cancer are not well understood, however aberrant expression of genes is associated with this cancer. TRIP13 plays pivotal roles in meiotic recombination, DNA repair, and cell cycle progression. An increasing body of evidence suggests that TRIP13 may possess functions other than meiosis and mitosis, ...
