ction were enrolled in this study. Cox regression analysis was used to determine the independent variables for overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS). The established models were validated internally....

Conclusion: Age, TNM stage, PNI, ALB, and MLR were significant determinants of both OS and DFS, and constituted the full model. The full model was suggested to outperform TNM stage in predicting both OS and DFS. Therefore, our findings may help surgeons better differentiate patients with poor survival before gastrectomy. However, because MLR...

Acacetin exerts antitumor effects on gastric cancer by targeting EGFR

Acacetin exerts antitumor effects on gastric cancer by targeting EGFR

Source : https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fphar.2023.1121643/full

Background: Gastric cancer (GC) is a common malignant tumor with a poor prognosis. Combination treatments may prolong the survival of patients with GC.

Conclusion: Our findings highlight EGFR as one of the direct targets of acacetin in GC cells. Acacetin inhibited the phosphatase activity of EGFR in vitro and in vivo, which played a role in the antitumor effects of acacetin. These studies provide new evidence for the use of acacetin as a potential reagent for the treatment of GC.
