Gastric cancer in a Caucasian population: role of pepsinogen C genetic variants.

World journal of gastroenterology - 21 Aug 2006

Abstract excerpt

AIM: To study the role of an insertion/deletion polymorphism in the pepsinogen C (PGC) gene, an effective marker for terminal differentiation of the stomach mucosa, in the susceptibility to the development of gastric lesions. METHODS: The study was performed with 99 samples of known gastric lesions and 127 samples without evidence of neoplastic disease. PCR was employed and the 6 polymorphic alleles were...
