RAB37, a small GTPase protein, is responsible for cellular signaling and vesicular transport and can induce autophagy by binding to autophagy-related gene 5 (ATG5); in addition, clinical studies have shown that ATG5 downregulation promotes gastric cancer invasion, and the downregulation of RAB37 expression is associated with cancer metastasis and a poor prognosis [120,121,122]. This evidence concerns the gene RAB37 and gastric cancer.
