        | Core Tip | 
        This letter evaluates the diagnostic and therapeutic utility of key inflammatory cytokines, such as interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, IL-8, and interferon-gamma, in gastric carcinoma (GC). These molecules are discussed as both biomarkers and drivers of tumor progression and chemoresistance. The discussion situates these markers within a broader inflammatory biomarker landscape that includes IL-10, IL-11, IL-18, C-X-C motif ligand 9, and host genetic factors. The analysis supports the use of multiplex cytokine panels over single markers for GC detection and treatment stratification, and outlines future directions for clinical integration and biomarker-guided therapy. |
