Abstract excerpt
Microsatellite polymorphism in the promoter region of the heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) gene was analyzed jointly with that of the inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) gene among Japanese subjects (control and gastric cancer patients). A higher promoter activity genotype of the HO-1 gene was associat...
