Introduction

Foods for Stomach Signet Ring Cell Carcinoma should be personalized for each individual and also must adapt when cancer treatment or tumor genetic change. The personalization and adaptation must consider all the active ingredients or bioactives contained in different foods with respect to cancer tissue biology, genetics, treatments, lifestyle conditions and diet preferences. Hence while nutrition is one of the very important decisions for a cancer patient and individual at risk of cancer to make – how to choose foods to eat is not an easy task.

Signet ring cell carcinoma is a rare and aggressive type of cancer characterized by cells that possess a distinctive appearance of signet ring-like nuclei. The stomach is a common site for signet ring cell carcinoma, also known as gastric signet ring cell carcinoma. Accurate diagnosis of signet ring cell carcinoma is crucial, as treatment approaches may differ from other types of carcinomas. Pathology outlines provide valuable information about the characteristics of signet ring cell carcinoma cells. Treatment options for signet ring cell carcinoma often involve a multimodal approach, including surgery, chemotherapy, and targeted therapies, tailored to the individual patient and stage of the tumor. Prognosis for signet ring cell carcinoma can vary depending on various factors, such as the stage of the disease and the response to treatment. Staying informed about the latest research and treatment options is crucial for optimizing outcomes in patients with signet ring cell carcinoma. By seeking appropriate medical care and accessing clinical trials when available, individuals affected by signet ring cell carcinoma can improve their chances of successful treatment. Awareness of the symptoms and risk factors associated with signet ring cell carcinoma helps in early detection and prompt intervention.



For Stomach Signet Ring Cell Carcinoma does it matter what vegetables, fruits, nuts, seeds one eats?

A very common nutrition question asked by cancer patients and individuals at-genetic risk of cancer is – for cancers like Stomach Signet Ring Cell Carcinoma does it matter what foods I eat and which I do not? Or if I follow a plant-based diet is that enough for cancer like Stomach Signet Ring Cell Carcinoma?

For example does it matter if vegetable New Zealand Spinach is consumed more compared to Arrowhead? Does it make any difference if fruit Grapefruit is preferred over European Cranberry? Also if similar choices are made for nuts/seeds like Butternut over European Chestnut and for pulses like Black-eyed Pea over Winged Bean. And if what I eat matters – then how does one identify foods which are recommended for Stomach Signet Ring Cell Carcinoma and is it the same answer for everyone with the same diagnosis or genetic risk?

Yes! Foods you eat matters for Stomach Signet Ring Cell Carcinoma!

Food recommendations may not be the same for everyone and can be different even for the same diagnosis and genetic risk.

All cancers like Stomach Signet Ring Cell Carcinoma can be characterized by a unique set of biochemical pathways - the signature pathways of Stomach Signet Ring Cell Carcinoma. Biochemical pathways like Growth Factor Signaling, Netrin Signaling, PI3K-AKT-MTOR Signaling, TGFB Signaling are part of the signature definition of Stomach Signet Ring Cell Carcinoma.

All foods (vegetables, fruits, nuts, seeds, pulses, oils etc.) and nutritional supplements are made up of more than one active molecular ingredient or bio-actives in different proportions and quantities. Each active ingredient has a unique mechanism of action – which can be activation or inhibition of different biochemical pathways. Simply stated foods and supplements which are recommended are those which do not cause an increase of molecular drivers of cancer but reduce them. Else those foods should not be recommended. Foods contain multiple active ingredients – hence when evaluating foods and supplements you need to consider the impact of all active ingredients cumulatively rather than individually.

For example Grapefruit contains active ingredients Curcumin, Naringenin, Hesperetin, Delphinidin, Formononetin. And European Cranberry contains active ingredients Curcumin, Ellagic Acid, Quercetin, Delphinidin, Formononetin and possibly others.

A common mistake made when deciding and choosing foods to eat for Stomach Signet Ring Cell Carcinoma – is to evaluate only selected active ingredients contained in foods and ignore the rest. Because different active ingredients contained in foods may have opposing effects on cancer drivers – you cannot cherry pick active ingredients in foods and supplements for making a nutrition decision for Stomach Signet Ring Cell Carcinoma.

YES – FOOD CHOICES MATTER FOR CANCER. NUTRITION DECISIONS MUST CONSIDER ALL ACTIVE INGREDIENTS OF FOODS.

Skills Needed for Nutrition Personalization for Stomach Signet Ring Cell Carcinoma?

Personalized nutrition for cancers like Stomach Signet Ring Cell Carcinoma consists of recommended foods / supplements; not recommended foods / supplements with example recipes which prioritize use of recommended foods. An example of personalized nutrition can be seen at this link.

Deciding which foods are recommended or not is extremely complicated, requiring expertise in Stomach Signet Ring Cell Carcinoma biology, food science, genetics, biochemistry along with good understanding of how cancer treatments work and associated vulnerabilities by which the treatments could stop being effective.

MINIMUM KNOWLEDGE EXPERTISE NEEDED FOR NUTRITION PERSONALIZATION FOR CANCER ARE: CANCER BIOLOGY, FOOD SCIENCE, CANCER TREATMENTS AND GENETICS.

Foods to Eat After Cancer Diagnosis!

No two cancers are the same. Go beyond the common nutrition guidelines for everyone and make personalized decisions about food and supplements with confidence.

Characteristics of cancers like Stomach Signet Ring Cell Carcinoma

All cancers like Stomach Signet Ring Cell Carcinoma can be characterized by a unique set of biochemical pathways – the signature pathways of Stomach Signet Ring Cell Carcinoma. Biochemical pathways like Growth Factor Signaling, Netrin Signaling, PI3K-AKT-MTOR Signaling, TGFB Signaling are part of the signature definition of Stomach Signet Ring Cell Carcinoma. Each individual’s cancer genetics can be different and hence their specific cancer signature could be unique.

The treatments which are effective for Stomach Signet Ring Cell Carcinoma need to be cognizant of the associated signature biochemical pathways for each cancer patient and individual at genetic risk. Therefore different treatments with different mechanisms of actions are effective for different patients. Similarly and for the same reasons foods and supplements need to be personalized for each individual. Hence some foods and supplements are recommended for Stomach Signet Ring Cell Carcinoma when taking cancer treatment Trifluridine, and some foods and supplements are not recommended.

Sources like cBioPortal and many others provide population representative patient anonymized data from clinical trials for all cancer indications. This data consists of clinical trial study details like sample size / number of patients, age groups, gender, ethnicity, treatments, tumor site and any genetic mutations.

CDH10, MUC16, SMARCA4, PLK1 and BCOR are the top ranked reported genes for Stomach Signet Ring Cell Carcinoma. CDH10 is reported in 20.0 % of the representative patients across all clinical trials. And MUC16 is reported in 20.0 %. The combined population patient data cover ages from 46 to 77. 47.6 % of the patient data are identified as men. The Stomach Signet Ring Cell Carcinoma biology along with reported genetics together define the population represented signature biochemical pathways for this cancer. If the individual cancer tumor genetics or genes contributing to the risk are also known then that should also be used for nutrition personalization.

NUTRITION CHOICES SHOULD MATCH WITH EACH INDIVIDUAL’S CANCER SIGNATURE.

In Conclusion

Foods and Supplements chosen are important decisions for cancers like Stomach Signet Ring Cell Carcinoma. Stomach Signet Ring Cell Carcinoma patients and individuals with genetic-risk always have this question: “What foods and nutritional supplements are recommended for me and which are not?” There is a common belief which is a misconception that all plant-based foods could be beneficial or not but would not be harmful. Certain foods and supplements can interfere with cancer treatments or promote molecular pathway drivers of cancer.

There are different types of cancer indications like Stomach Signet Ring Cell Carcinoma, each with different tumor genetics with further genomic variations across each individual. Further every cancer treatment and chemotherapy has a unique mechanism of action. Each food like New Zealand Spinach contains various bioactives in different quantities, which have an impact on different and distinct sets of biochemical pathways. The definition of personalized nutrition is individualized food recommendations for the cancer indication, treatments, genetics, lifestyle and other factors. Nutrition personalization decisions for cancer require knowledge of cancer biology, food science and an understanding of different chemotherapy treatments. Finally when there are treatment changes or new genomics is identified – the nutrition personalization needs re-evaluation.
