| Core Tip |
This review reveals a bidirectional relationship between depression and gastric cancer. Depression activates the sympathetic nervous system and the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal (HPA) axis, promoting tumor progression through pathways such as the β2-adrenergic receptor (β2-AR). Conversely, gastric cancer induces depression through psychosocial and pathophysiological mechanisms. This vicious cycle provides a theoretical basis for clinical interventions designed to improve patient outcomes and quality of life. |
