The role of the S100A8/S100A9 in gastric tumor progression.

ABSTRACT: Gastric premalignant lesions can develop into cancer through multiple steps and inflammation plays a critical role. The aim of this study is to uncover the characteristics of macrophages and their gene expression in premalignant gastric lesions to identify novel biomarkers and potential targets for treatment. We used the computational algorithm CIBERSORT to estimate immune cell subsets present in gastric tissue. We applied WGCNA to identify inflammation-related modules and hub genes. Single-cell analysis was used to identify macrophage sub-clusters specific to pathology. In addition, the in-vitro experiment was performed to verify the mechanism of the key inflammatory factors in the growth of gastric cancer. WGCNA identified a module that was positively correlated with pathological changes
