Abstract excerpt
The effects of oxidative stress in adenocarcinomas of gastric cardia (AGCs) have not been fully elucidated. With a strict definition of AGC, we examined the immunohistochemical expressions of inducible nitric oxide synthase; 8-hydroxy-deoxyguanosine; and the base excision repair enzymes such as MUTYH, MTH1, and OGG1, and TP53 mutational status. Sixty-three cases of AGC were characterized by younger patient age (P...
