Core Tip

Core Tip: Gastric cancer is a widespread malignancy that is linked to multiple risk factors. Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) are closely correlated with gastric cancer pathogenesis. Decreasing AGEs levels and minimizing AGEs accumulation may slow gastric cancer progression. Future research endeavours should aim to discover novel interventions to reduce the burden of gastric cancer and improve human health.
