Transcriptional Signatures of Field Cancerization in Gastric Cancer
2025-09-21
Abstract excerpt
The high rate of local recurrence in gastric adenocarcinoma (GA) suggests that carcinogenesis is not a focal event but a field-wide process. This phenomenon, known as “field cancerization,” posits that histologically normal peritumoral tissue is, in fact, a pre-neoplastic field harboring incipient molecular alterations that confound genomic studies using it as a normal control. To overcome this limitation, we perf...
