Abstract
A few studies have shown that the chemokine receptor-4/chemokine ligand-12 (CXCR4/CXCL12) axis is closely related to the development of gastric cancer. The CXCR4/CXCL12 axis and its related signal pathways, including Janus protein tyrosine kinase 2/signal transduction and transcription activator 3 and phosphatidylinositol-3/kinase-protein kinase B/mammalian target of Rapamycin, and their related signal molecules, including epithelial-mechanism transition proto-oncogene, phosphoglyc-erate kinase 1, and dopamine and cAMP-regulated phosphoprotein, have effects on gastric cancer. Moreover, there are antagonists and some drugs that inhibit the involvement of the CXCR4/CXCL12 axis in regulating the development of gastric cancer.
