Genetic alterations and polymorphisms in gastric cancer.

Abstract excerpt

The etiology of gastric cancer (GC) is multifactorial, and is likely to involve the actions of genes at multiple levels along the multistage carcinogenesis process. This article reviews the considerable progress that has been achieved in understanding the genetics of GC. The genetic effects consist of inherited genetic factors that predispose to GC, and the genetic targets of neoplastic progression that confer...
