Abstract excerpt
Src homology 2 domain-containing protein tyrosine phosphatase-2 (SHP-2) of gastric epithelial cells interacts with cagA from Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori). Our previous studies found the AA genotype of a G/A single nucleotide polymorphism at intron 3 (rs2301756) of PTPN11 gene, which encodes SHP-2, to be associated with a lower risk of gastric atrophy. The present study aimed to examine the association with...
