The association and roles between hypoxia, EMT and TAMs in the biological behavior of gastric cancer (GC) for the time being recurrence is unclear. %K Gastric cancer %K hypoxia-inducible factor-1 alpha %K tumor-associated macrophages %K epithelial-mesenchymal transition %K prognosis %U http://www.jcancer.org/v08p1818.htm
