“…To identify these people, markers for multiple gastric cancers, such as gastric atrophy (10), microsatellite instability in cancers (11), and expression of brain-type glycogen phosphorylase in noncancerous gastric mucosae (12), have been developed. However, their sensitivity and specificity are not satisfactory, and a more sensitive marker whose value correlates with the degree of an individual's risk of cancer is awaited.…”

“…In this issue of Gastric Cancer, Shimada and coworkers [5] again discuss this matter, emphasizing a possible immunohistochemical marker indicative of a high risk of development of gastric cancer, mainly applicable to patients submitted to treatment for an early carcinoma of the stomach. This study is a retrospective evaluation of the presence of brain (fetal)-type glycogen phosphorylase (BGP) in gastric mucosa with metaplasia, associated with different types of early gastric cancer.…”

“…With the increase of tumor malignancy, PYGB can promote cell proliferation, inhibit apoptosis, and enhance the migration and tumorigenesis of tumor cells. It is highly expressed in human colorectal cancer cells (37).Detection of PYGB during gastric biopsy may predict the occurrence and development of new lesions after local treatment of early gastric cancer (38,39). These suggest that PYGB has the function of malignant transformation of cells (40).…”
