Notably, the analysis of patients with gastric cancer indicated the marked positive regulation of ELK3 and BMP1, LOXL2, SNAI1, SERPINF1, DCN, and NID1 gene expression (Figure 7B), suggesting a significant positive correlation between ELK3 and ECM remodeling-associated genes in gastric cancer. Here, LOXL2 is linked to gastric cancer.
