Gliomedin drives gastric cancer cell proliferation and migration, correlating with a poor prognosis.

ABSTRACT: Gastric cancer (GC) is a prevalent global malignancy, often diagnosed at advanced stage due to a lack of early symptoms and reliable markers. Previous research has identified gliomedin (GLDN) as a potential predictive marker for poor prognosis in cancer patients. However, the specific relationship between GLDN expression and GC prognosis has been unclear. Using the Tumor-Immune System Interaction Database (TISIDB), we examined GLDN expression in GC tissues and found a positive correlation with advanced clinical stages. Kaplan-Meier Plotter analysis further demonstrated that elevated GLDN levels were closely associated with poor prognosis in GC patients. To explore the functional significance of GLDN in GC, we conducted experiments involving GLDN overexpression and knockdown in GC cell line
