Background: The mannose receptor is an immune adhesion molecule mainly expressed on the surface of antigen-presenting cells such as nonmature dendritic cells and macrophages. This study aimed to investigate mannose receptor expression and its predictive role in papillary gastric cancer patients.Methods: The expression of the mannose receptor was measured in 120 samples of gastric cancer tissues and corresponding paracarcinoma tissues, by immunohistochemical and quantitative real-time PCR analysis. The relationships between mannose receptor expression and clinicopathological features of gastric cancer patients were analyzed.Results: The expression rate of the mannose receptor in gastric cancer cells was 45.8% (54/120), significantly higher than that in the paracarcinoma tissue (20.0%, 36/120) (chi(2) = 6.286, p = 0.012). High expression of the mannose receptor was closely related to tumor size, T stage, N stage and Union for International Cancer Control (UICC) stage of gastric cancer (p
