Previous study showed that Slc26a9 loss impairs parietal cell function and survival. We investigated whether Slc26a9 loss causes spontaneous gastric carcinogenesis in mice and plays a role in the development and progression in human gastric cancer (GC). Gastric histopathology and potential molecular mechanism were explored in Slc26a9 knockout mice and wild-type littermates as well as Slc26a9fl/fl/Atp4b-Cre and Slc26a9fl/fl mice from 8 days to 18 months by histological and immunohistochemical analyses, quantitative PCR, in situ hybridization, and RNA microarray analysis, respectively. We demonstrated that loss of parietal cell expression of Slc26a9 is the key event to induce spontaneous gastric carcinogenesis in mice, and clarified the sequence of events leading to malignant transformation, including Slc26a9 deficiency in parietal cells resulted in dysregulated differentiation of stem cells in an inflammatory environment, activated Wnt signaling pathway to induce gastric epithelia cell hyperproliferation and apoptosis inhibition, as well as spontaneous epithelial to mesenchymal transition-induced cancer stem cell phenotypes. Downregulation of SLC26A9 correlated with GC patients short survival. Graphical AbstractLoss of parietal cell expression of Slc26a9 is the key event to induce spontaneous gastric carcinogenesis in transgenic mice.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
