The mortality rate of stomach cancer in the JACC Study was lower than that in the vital statistics in Japan, but care is needed to interpret this similarity, because it might be due to different degree of completeness of incidence survey between the 2 studies.

Association of tea consumption and the risk of gastric cancer in Japanese adults: the Japan Collaborative Cohort Study

In this large community-based prospective cohort study, tea consumption was not associated with the risk of GC in either gender.

Hyperglycemia increases risk of gastric cancer posed by Helicobacter pylori infection: a population-based cohort study.

It is suggested that casual hyperglycemia is a risk factor for gastric cancer and is a possible cofactor increasing the risk posed by Helicobacter pylori infection.

Can the incidence of gastric cancer be reduced in the new century?

A high detection rate of early GC could help to conquer GC, and with the improvement of living conditions and the achievements of scientific research, it seems possible that there will be a further reduction in the incidence in the new century.

Long-term administration of the fungus toxin, sterigmatocystin, induces intestinal metaplasia and increases the proliferative activity of PCNA, p53, and MDM2 in the gastric mucosa of aged Mongolian gerbils

The histopathological and immunohistopathological findings of this study indicate that ST exerts a marked influence on gastric mucus and gland cells, showing dominant gastritis, erosion events, polyps, and intestinal metaplasia in these animals.

Participation of microbiota in the development of gastric cancer.

Altered gastric microbiota may increase the production of N-nitroso compounds, promoting the development of gastric cancer and further investigation of the carcinogenic mechanisms of microbiota would benefit for the prevention and management of Gastric cancer.

Effect of Green Tea on the Formation of Nitrosamines, and Cancer Mortality

Strong green tea might inhibit the formation of nitrosamines and decrease the risk of carcinogenesis, and the relationship between the concentration of catechins in green tea infusion brewed in different areas and the standardized mortality ratio of cancer in respective areas was examined.

13-Acetoxysarcocrassolide Induces Apoptosis on Human Gastric Carcinoma Cells Through Mitochondria-Related Apoptotic Pathways: p38/JNK Activation and PI3K/AKT Suppression

Results suggest that 13-AC induces cell apoptosis against gastric cancer cells through triggering of the mitochondrial-dependent apoptotic pathway as well as activation of the p38 and JNK pathways.
