Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND/AIM: Few studies have examined the genetic role of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) to early detection or prediction in gastric cancer development. In this study, the contribution of MMP7 promoter (A-181G and C-153T) polymorphic genotypes to gastric cancer risk in Taiwanese was investigated for the first time. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 121 cases and 363 controls were enrolled and their MMP7...
