This study investigates the correlation between SHH and ERα mRNA expression in histological tissue samples of gastric cancer. In diffuse-type gastric cancer, a strong positive correlation (R=0.7286, p<0.0001) was observed, while intestinal-type showed a moderate correlation (R=0.5029, p<0.0226). Additionally, the impact of E2 and Tamoxifen (TAM) on cell proliferation was assessed in ERα-positive NCI-N87 and KATO-III cells, and ERα-negative MK-1 cells, highlighting TAM's varying effects on these cell lines.

Results are expressed as mean ± s.d. *p < 0.05; B MK-1 * Cell number (% of control) E2(nM) TAM (mM) Fig. 2B Cell proliferation in the presence of E2 alone or in combination with Tamoxifen (TAM) in MK-1 cells as ERa-negative cell. 1 mM of TAM did not inhibit the proliferation of MK-1 cells. However, 3mM of TAM inhibited the proliferation of MK-1 cells. Data indicate that 3 mM of TAM may be cytotoxic. Results are expressed as mean ± s.d. *p < 0.05;
