Abstract excerpt

Deficiency of the mannose-binding lectin (MBL) protein, an antigen-recognition molecule involved in systemic and mucosal innate immunity, is determined by variant alleles in MBL2 gene promoter and exon-1 regions. We conducted a population-based study on 305 stomach cancer cases and 427 controls in Warsaw, Poland to determine whether MBL2 gene variants predispose to stomach cancer. Single nucleotide polymorphisms...
