Gastric carcinoma patients and healthy subjects. Homo sapiens

Gastric cancer is one of the most aggressive cancers and is the second leading cause of cancer death worldwide. Approximately 40% of global gastric cancer cases occur in China, with peritoneal metastasis being the prevalent form of recurrence and metastasis in advanced disease (>50%). Currently, there are limited clinical approaches for predicting and treatment of peritoneal metastasis, resulting in a 6- month average survival time. By comprehensive genome analysis will uncover the pathogenesis of peritoneal metastasis. Here we describe a comprehensive whole-genome and transcriptome sequencing analysis of one advanced gastric cancer case, including non-cancerous mucosa, primary cancer and matched peritoneal metastatic cancer. The peripheral blood is used as normal control. Overall design: Gastric carcinoma patients and healthy subjects
