Background<p>Gastric cancer (GC) is a heterogeneous malignancy that requires improved molecular tools for prognostic stratification.

Description

Protein palmitoylation regulates membrane localization and signaling, but the clinical relevance of palmitoylation-related genes (PRGs) in GC remains unclear.</p>Methods<p>Gene Expression Omnibus, The Cancer Genome Atlas, and GeneCards data were integrated to identify PRGs. Differential expression analysis, weighted gene co-expression network analysis, and three machine-learning algorithms were used to select key genes.

Diagnostic and prognostic performance was evaluated in TCGA-STAD, platform-specific GEO cohorts, and an institutional cohort of 80 paired tissues. Immune infiltration, single-cell RNA sequencing, immunotherapy-related indices, and GDSC-based drug sensitivity were analyzed. CTHRC1 was further examined using clinical specimens, cell assays, and xenografts.</p>Results<p>Thirteen differentially expressed PRGs were identified, and SERPINE1, CTHRC1, and EGR1 were selected.

The integrated diagnostic model achieved AUCs of 0.935 in TCGA-STAD, 1.000 in GSE54129, and 0.916 in GSE118916, respectively. The three-gene score stratified overall survival in the total, training, and testing TCGA-STAD cohorts and in GSE84437, GSE236522, and the institutional cohort. It remained independently associated with survival in multivariable analysis.

High-risk tumors showed increased stromal and immune scores, altered immune-cell composition, higher checkpoint expression, and higher TIDE scores. Single-cell analysis localized SERPINE1 and CTHRC1 mainly to fibroblast-related compartments. CTHRC1 knockdown reduced GC-cell proliferation, clonogenicity, migration, invasion, and xenograft growth while increasing apoptosis.</p>Conclusion<p>The SERPINE1/CTHRC1/EGR1 signature provides prognostic and immune-stromal information in GC, and the experiments support a tumor-promoting role for CTHRC1.

The findings define a palmitoylation-associated transcriptional framework but do not establish a palmitoylation-dependent mechanism.</p>
