AMBRA1 drives gastric cancer progression through regulation of tumor plasticity.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Stomach adenocarcinoma (STAD) is an aggressive malignancy characterized by high tumor plasticity and heterogeneity. This study investigates the role of Autophagy and Beclin 1 Regulator 1 (AMBRA1) in regulating tumor plasticity in STAD progression.

Methods

Combined with clinical data, the pan-cancer analysis of AMBRA1 was performed to analyze the role of AMBRA1 in STAD. Western blot, Flow Cytometry (FCM) assay, trans-well assay, wound healing assay, MTT, Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) assay, Reverse Transcription Quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-qPCR) and staining were performed to study the effects of AMBRA1 in AGS human gastric cancer cells. An AGS gastric cancer xenograft model was constructed to further verify the role of AMBRA1 in the development of S
