| Summary: | Adjuvant chemoradiotherapy, molecular targeted therapy, and immunotherapy are frequently employed to extend the survival of patients with advanced gastric cancer (GC). However, most of these treatments have toxic side effects, drug resistance, and limited improvements in survival and quality of life. Therefore, it is crucial to discover and develop new medications targeting GC that are highly effective and have minimal toxicity. In previous studies, the total terpene extract from the stem of Celastrus orbiculatus demonstrated anti-GC activity; however, the specific mechanism was unclear. Our research utilising co-immunoprecipitation-mass spectrometry (Co-IP-MS), polypyrimidine tract binding protein 1 (ptbp1) clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat-associated protein 9 (Cas9)-knockout (KO) mouse model, tissue microarray, and functional experiments suggests that alpha actinin-4 (ACTN4) could be a significant biomarker of GC. PTBP1 influences actin cytoskeleton restructuring in GC cells by interacting with ACTN4. Celastrus orbiculatus stem extract (COE) may directly target ACTN4 and affect the interaction between PTBP1 and ACTN4, thereby exerting anti-GC effects. |
