Background Gastric cancer (GC) remains a leading cause of cancer-related mortality, with over one million new cases and 769,000 deaths reported in 2020. Despite advancements chemotherapy, surgery, targeted therapies, delayed diagnosis due to overlooked early symptoms leads poor prognosis. Methods We integrated bulk RNA sequencing single-cell datasets from TCGA, GEO, OMIX001073, employing normalization, batch effect correction, dimensionality reduction methods identify key cell populations associated GC invasion epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), as well analyze the tumor immune microenvironment. Results Our analysis identified MUC5AC+ malignant epithelial cluster significant player EMT. Cluster 1, representing this population, exhibited higher EMT scores compared other clusters. Survival showed that high abundance 0 correlated improved survival rates (P=0.012), whereas 1 was poorer outcomes (P=0.045). A prognostic model highlighted ANXA5 GABARAPL2 two critical genes upregulated tumors. High-risk patients demonstrated increased infiltration worse prognosic. Analysis mutation burden (TMB) indicated low TMB high-risk group had worst Wet-lab validation experiments confirmed oncogenic role ANXA5, showing its facilitation proliferation, invasion, migration while suppressing apoptosis. Conclusion This study offers novel insights into subpopulations cells their roles progression. It provides potential therapeutic targets combat GC, contributing crucial understanding fundamental mechanisms drug resistance gastrointestinal cancers.

Cancer/testis antigen (CTA) family is restricted to germline and tumor cells plays an important role during cancer initiation progression. Five single-cell two bulk RNA-seq datasets are integrated screen genes in the CTAs family, revealing that Placenta specific protein 1 (Plac1) specifically expressed head neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) cells. Sp1 Transcription (SP1) identified as a regulator of Plac1, which confirmed by cleavage under targets tagmentation (CUT&Tag)-seq. With vitro experiments, vivo subcutaneous tumor, transgenic autochthonous model, it revealed Plac1 expression promotes HNSCC progression inducing epidermal growth factor receptor endocytosis recycling increase PI3K/AKT signaling pathway activity.

Recent research has highlighted the significance of circular RNAs (circRNAs) as pivotal regulators in progression tumors and therapeutic response non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). These circRNAs function through a sponge mechanism, interacting with microRNAs (miRNAs) to modulate mRNA expression levels. Nevertheless, precise role circRNA-miRNA-mRNA regulatory network immune regulation within adenocarcinoma (LUAD) remains inadequately understood. We utilized microarray datasets from GEO NCBI database (GSE101586) identify differentially expressed (DEcircRNAs) LUAD. CircBank was employed predict target miRNAs DEcircRNAs, which were subsequently intersected GSE36681 database. The identified then predicted mRNAs using miRDB miWalk, intersections immune-related genes IMMPORT analyzed. Protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks constructed Cytoscape software.

Summary Understanding the mechanisms that facilitate early events in metastatic seeding is key to developing therapeutic approaches reduce metastasis – leading cause of cancer-related death. Using whole animal screens genetically engineered mouse models cancer we have identified circulating metabolites associated with metastasis. Specifically, highlight pyrimidine uracil as a prominent metastasis-associated metabolite. Uracil generated by neutrophils expressing enzyme uridine phosphorylase-1 (UPP1), and neutrophil specific Upp1 expression increased cancer. Altered UPP1 activity influences adhesion molecules on surface neutrophils, decreased motility pre-metastatic lung. Furthermore, find UPP1-expressing suppress T-cell proliferation, product can increase fibronectin deposition extracellular microenvironment. Consistently, knockout or inhibition mice mammary tumours increases number T-cells reduces content lung decreases proportion develop These data indicate behaviour matrix suggest pharmacological targeting this pathway could be an effective strategy
