Abstract
Gastric cancer is one of the five most common types of cancer worldwide. Due to the heterogeneous course and the involvement of many risk factors, its treatment and diagnosis is an important challenge for modern medicine. Recent studies have emphasized the i role of Toll-like receptors (TLRs) expressed on selected cells of the immune system in the pathogenesis of gastric cancer. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of TLR2 on T lymphocytes, B lymphocytes, monocytes, and dendritic cells in patients diagnosed with gastric cancer, with particular emphasis on the stage of the disease. Based on the obtained results, we have shown that patients with gastric cancer are characterized by a higher percentage of all tested populations of peripheral blood immune cells expressing TLR2 in relation to patients from the control group. Moreover, a detailed analysis of the collected results showed a significant link between TLR2 and the stage of the disease.
