Core Tip

Core tip: Despite the advances in technology and its access, to date, there are few defined biomarkers of prognostic and diagnostic use for gastric tumors. Therefore, a combination of several approaches (genetic, epigenetic and proteomic) should be considered the best alternative for clinical practice. Considering this point of view, this review aims to discuss the most studied biomarkers, discussing the pros and cons of each type of marker and their use in the clinical practice.
