The involvement of collagen family genes in tumor enlargement of gastric cancer

Abstract: Extracellular matrix (ECM) not only serves as a support for tumor cell but also regulates cell–cell or cell–matrix cross-talks. Collagens are the most abundant proteins in ECM. Several studies have found that certain collagen genes were overexpressed in gastric cancer (GC) tissues and might serve as potential biomarkers and therapeutic targets in GC patients. However, the expression patterns of all collagen family genes in GC tissue and their functions are still not clear. With RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) data, m… Show more

“…The extracellular matrix (ECM) is a complex network of proteins and other macromolecules that provide structural support and regulate cell behavior. Dysregulation of extracellular matrix organization can lead to various diseases, including fibrotic diseases 26 , pancreatic cancer 27 , gastric cancer 28 , breast cancer 29 , and other cancer types 30 . Furthermore, the enrichment of terms related to the extracellular region underscores the importance of these genes in regulating the cellular microenvironment.…”

“…The presence of collagen in the GC microenvironment and stromal fibrosis affects GC metastasis [ 23 , 24 ]. The most recent analysis of the mRNA expression of collagen family genes ( COL10A1 and COL11A1 ) in different T stages of GC determined that COL10A1 and COL11A1 mRNA expression was significantly upregulated in the late T stage [ 25 ]. Therefore, collagen is involved in GC progression and metastasis.…”

“…[23] The most recent analysis of the mRNA expression of collagen family genes (COL10A1 and COL11A1) in different T stages of GC determined that COL10A1 and COL11A1 mRNA expression was significantly upregulated in the late T stage. [24] Therefore, collagen is involved in GC progression and metastasis. Notably, we determined that galectin-1 expression in GC tissues was positively correlated with the collagen thickness in the matched peritoneal tissues.…”
