Abstract excerpt
Transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta1, as a candidate tumor marker, is currently of interest. In this study, serum TGF-beta1 levels in gastric cancer (GC) patients and healthy volunteers were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). In addition, single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the TGF-beta1 gene at codon 10 and codon 25 were identified by means of amplification refractory mutation...
