Gene expressions in cancer cells and cancerous stroma in gastric cancer. Expression levels of thymidylate synthase, orotate phosphoribosyltransferase, dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase, and thymidine phosphorylase mRNA in cancer cells (Ca) and cancerous stroma (Str) were evaluated by laser capture microdissection plus reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction. Thymidylate synthase, orotate phosphoribosyltransferase, and thymidine phosphorylase expression levels were higher in Ca than in Str. The dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase expression level was higher in Str than in Ca.
