Cancer is a class of chronic diseases associated with irregular cell growth in the tissues of the affected organ.
The stomach formed part of the digestive system located between the esophagus and the small intestine, is a muscular, hollow and an important organ of the digestive tract.
The stomach plays a critical role to assist the digestive system in digesting foods by secreting acid and enzymes.
Stomach cancer is a condition of abnormal growth of the mucus-producing cells in the inside lining of the stomach. Adenocarcinoma is the most common type of stomach cancer.

According to the statistics, most cases of gastric/stomach cancer are found in older people. The average age of people when they are diagnosed is 68. The risk of developing gastric/stomach cancer in a man lifetime is about 1 in 95.
The exact causes of gastric/stomach cancer are unidentified. However, researchers do no certain risk factors are associated with an increased risk of the disease.

Some researchers suggested that people with chronic gastrointestinal reflux disease (GERD), a condition caused by the frequent backflow of stomach acid into the esophagus, is the most likely to develop the disease.
Other diseases associated with the early onset of gastric cancer are obesity and smoking.
According to the Universidad de Salamanca, bacteria and viruses, including Helicobacter pylori are strongly associated with chronic gastritis, clinical syndromes, precancerous lesions, and pathogenesis of gastric cancer development.
Broccoli is a mustard/cabbage plant, belongings to the family Brassicaceae. The veggie has large flower heads, usually green in color with a mass of flower heads surrounded by leaves and evolved from a wild cabbage plant from the continent of Europe.
On finding a potential phytochemical for the treatment of cancer, researchers examined the inhibitory effect of sulforaphane (SFN), the major component extracted from broccoli/broccoli sprouts on gastric cancer.
According to the tested analysis, in vitro, the tumorsphere formation associated with tumor progression and recurrence and the expression levels of gastric cancer stem cells (CSCs) markers were significantly decreased by the SFN treatment.
Furthermore, SFN exerted strong inhibitory effects by suppressing proliferation and inducing apoptosis in gastric CSCs.
Moreover, SFN inhibited the activation of Sonic Hh, a key pathway in maintaining the stemness of gastric CSCs.
Based on the findings, researchers said, "these data revealed that SFN could be a potent natural compound targeting gastric CSCs via suppression of Sonic Hh pathway, which might be a promising agent for gastric cancer intervention".
Taken altogether, broccoli processed a high amount of SFN may be considered a functional food for the prevention and treatment of gastric cancer, pending to the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.
