Prognostic prediction and immune infiltration analysis based on lysosome and senescence state identifies MMP12 as a novel therapy target in gastric cancer

As humans undergo the aging process, they become more vulnerable to various types of cancers, including gastric cancer (GC), which is frequently associated with aging. The senescent phenotype is closely linked to lysosomes, but research on the combined impact of senescence and lysosomes on GC prognosis is scarce.
