Abstract

ABSTRACTIntroduction: Patient outcomes from gastric cancer vary due to the complexity of stomach carcinogenesis. Recent research using proteomic technologies has targeted components of all of these systems in order to develop biomarkers to aid the early diagnosis of gastric cancer and to assist in prognostic stratification.Areas covered: This review is comprised of evidence obtained from literature searches from PubMed. It covers the evidence of diagnostic, prognostic, and predictive biomarkers for gastric cancer using proteomic technologies, and provides up-to-date references.Expert commentary: The proteomic technologies have not only enabled the screening of a large number of samples, but also enabled the identification of diagnostic, prognostic and predictive biomarkers for gastric cancer. While major challenges still remain, to date, proteomic studies in gastric cancer have provided a wealth of information in revealing proteome alterations associated with the disease.
