The anchor MSC is the MSC that handled the first call procedure. It will always be in charge of the call.
If mobile moves to another MSC the call will go to the anchor MSC and then to the second MSC.
If the mobile moves to a third MSC the second MSC will be no longer be part of the call.
The anchor MSC is the MSC from which a handover has been initiated. The target MSC is the MSC toward which a Handover should take place.
A normal MSC will connect BSC to the PLMN/PSTN Network directly. Meaning to say it will need to do the call connections and management from BSC all the way to PLMN/PSTN network. Once the network expands, the MSC will face congestion and therefore a solution needed. GMSC - Gateway MSC, as the name implies, will in this case serve as an interconnection between MSC and PLMN/PSTN Network. Thus this free up the resources of the MSC itself need to perform all the originally tasks.

I think PSTN mainly serves to wired land-line(telephone) and MSC serves to cellular(mobile) network.
Mobile service Switching Center is the core component of the Network Subsystem in the GSM network architecture. It serves as the connection between other MSCs in the home network and the PSTN/ISDN. The main functions of the MSC include handling of: 1) Registration 2) Authentication 3) Location Updating 4) Handovers 5) Call Routing. Igwe John, Kalu
It is mobile service switching center and not just mobile switching center. Because it does not switches our mobile, but the service.
The Mobile Switching Centre (MSC) is a telephone exchange that makes the connection between mobile users within the network, from mobile users to the public switched telephone network and from mobile users to other mobile networks.The MSC also administers handovers to neighbouring base stations, keeps a record of the location of the mobile subscribers, is responsible for subscriber services and billing.

Mobile services Switching Center (MSC). It acts like a normal switching node of the PSTN or ISDN, and in addition provides all the functionality needed to handle a mobile subscriber, such as registration, authentication, location updating, handovers, and call routing to a roaming subscriber. These services are provided in conjuction with several functional entities, which together form the Network Subsystem. BSCs connect to a single MSC and each BSC typically controls several Base Transceiver Stations (BTSs).Some of the BTSs may be co-located at the BSC and the other may be remotely located and connected to the BSC by · microwave link or · leased line.
