Gastric cancer is a major cause of morbidity and death worldwide. We have previously established a very informative animal model of this disease which has facilitated a new understanding of the diverse role of the IL-6 family of cytokines in regulating gastric tumour growth and dissemination to distant organs. This proposal will focus on how the main members of this cytokine family, namely IL-6 and IL-11, inhibit gastric tumour invasion to other organs, and promote tumour growth respectively . An understanding of these processes will aid in designing therapeutic interventions specific for each cytokine and which may lead to drugs aimed at limiting or reversing this disease.

胃癌是全球发病率和死亡的主要原因。我们以前已经建立了一种非常有用的动物模型，该模型促进了对IL-6细胞因子家族在调节胃肿瘤生长和向远处器官传播中的多种作用的新理解。该提案将重点介绍该细胞因子家族的主要成员，即IL-6和IL-11，分别抑制胃肿瘤侵袭其他器官并促进肿瘤生长。对这些过程的理解将有助于设计针对每种细胞因子的治疗干预措施，并可能导致旨在限制或逆转这种疾病的药物。
