Pre-treatment Peripheral Neutrophil-Lymphocyte Ratio as a Prognostic Marker in Gastric Cancer
Magdy, Monika; Hussein, Tarek; Ezzat, Ahmed; Gaballah, Ahmed;
Abstract
Gastric cancer is the fifth cancer worldwide. Inflammatory response increases metastasis through apoptosis inhibition and angiogenesis augmentation. The neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), which is a balance between pro-cancer inflammatory and anti-cancer immune responses, was proved as prognostic marker. Peripheral NLR is a good reflection of tumor microenvironment.
