In gastric cancer, Zhu et al. showed that EGCG had improved pathological lesions of the precancerous lesions of gastric cancer (PLGC) and enhanced the effect of apoptosis promotion in PLGC rats, and the apoptotic pathway activated by EGCG may be correlated to the inhibition of the PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway [183]. This evidence concerns the gene AKT1 and gastric cancer.
