Chen gastric statistics (Chen et al., 2003) indicated that LOX is overexpressed in gastric intestinal adenocarcinoma compared with gastric normal tissue with a fold change of 2.312, diffuse gastric adenocarcinoma with a fold change of 2.004, and gastric mixed adenocarcinoma with a fold change of 3.232 (Table 1). This evidence concerns the gene LOX and diffuse gastric adenocarcinoma.
