Received Date: June 26, 2020; Published Date: July 08, 2020
Abstract
Gastric cancer is one of the aggressive tumors which has a poor prognosis due to the late detection. It is asymptomatic cancer and most of the cases gastric cancer are diagnosed at advanced stages. From the usual invasive methods of screening, the use of saliva as a non-invasive diagnostic method is gaining much attention. Nowadays researches have shed light on the use of saliva as a diagnostic tool and many studies have identified various salivary biomarkers for the early detection of gastric cancer. But the lack of validated biomarkers in this field can be considered as a drawback, which can be dealt with the enhancement of preclinically validated biomarkers by assimilating them to credible biomarker panels.
