What is epigenetic gastric cancer

Gastric cancer is one of the malignant tumors. Many patients have found that their ancestors also had gastric cancer. This can't help but make people panic, worrying whether gastric cancer is hereditary and afraid of threatening their next generation. Therefore, we specially consulted relevant experts. Let's take a look at the content of epigenetic gastric cancer.

Now, more and more studies have confirmed that many tumors, including gastric cancer, may be related to genetics.
Gastric cancer is inherited from the familial inheritance of chromosomal aberration cancer. It is currently believed that it may be caused by chromosomal aberration. This chromosomal aberration is sometimes inherited to offspring, but this inheritance is not a direct cancer inheritance, but an individual's tendency to develop cancer. When the body's immune function is low or defective, it can increase the susceptibility to gastric cancer and fail to eliminate the mutant cells in the bud stage in time, leading to gastric cancer.
Genetic immunity and gastric cancer Genetic immune disorders may be one of the internal causes of gastric cancer. The incidence of gastric cancer in people with primary hypor-globulinemia was found to be 47 times higher than that in the normal population. Defects in immune surveillance function can increase susceptibility to gastric cancer. When cellular immunity is defective, tumors are prone to occur, especially when the gastric mucosa is damaged. Due to low or defective immune function of the body, mutated cells cannot be eliminated in time in the embryonic stage, leading to gastric cancer. It is generally believed that gastric cancer is a multi-gene inheritance, but it is difficult to study the role of genetic factors in the etiology of human gastric cancer. There are still some problems in methodology that need further exploration.
