The Role of Serum Ck-18, MMP-9 and Tipm-1 Levels in Predicting R0 Resection in Patients With Gastric Cancer

Abstract: Background: Gastric cancer is the 3rd most common cause of death in men and the 5th common in women worldwide. Today, surgery is the only curative therapy. Currently available advanced imaging modalities can predict R0 resection in most patients, but it can only be detected with certainty in the perioperative period. Aim: To determine the role of serum CK18, MMP9, TIMP1 levels in predicting R0 resection in patients with gastric cancer. Methods:Fifty consecutive patients scheduled for curative surgery with gast… Show more

“…CK18 plays an important role in regulating cell behavior, such as apoptosis, cell cycle, and tumor progression. It has been reported that CK18 may be abnormally expressed in various cancers and can provide prognostic information 34 . CKs are an important biomarker for diagnosis and prognosis of urothelial diseases.…”

“…It has been reported that high expression of epithelial MMP-2 in gastric carcinoma is associated with low survival, while aggressive gastric carcinoma is associated with low expression of TIMP [26,27]. In gastric carcinoma, either inhibition of MMP-2 or up-regulation of TIMP-1 expression has been reported to suppress of metastasis [28,29]. Initially, metastatic cancer cells need to detach from the primary tumor, migrate and invade the basement membrane.…”

“…However, since the publication of the first Consensus, many aspects related to CG have changed 16,17 . It lists: new TNM staging classification was implemented by the American Joint Committee on Cancer and Union for International Cancer Control (AJCC/UICC) 18 ; the agreement between the West and the East on the pivotal role of D2 lymphadenectomy as a standard surgical treatment; the increasing role of multimodal therapy (neoadjuvant, perioperative and adjuvant chemotherapy/radiotherapy); the replacement of the systematic removal of the lymph node stations by the minimum number of 15 lymph nodes in the D2 lymphadenectomy; the indication for multivisceral resection (splenectomy); the endoscopic treatment in early GC and the role of minimally invasive surgery (laparoscopic or robotic) as an alternative surgical approach.…”
