Background: The effect of pharmacological treatment of gastric cancer (GC) is limited, thus, it holds significant scientific importance to thoroughly investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying GC development and identify novel molecules capable of substantially extending patients' survival. This study utilized bioinformatics techniques to identify 11 genes associated with recurrence-free survival (RFS) in GC patients and investigated the potential biological functions of these genes through single-cell transcriptomic analysis. Subsequently, a single gene Cystatin A (CSTA) was selected for further analysis to explore its impact on signaling pathways and treatment.
