NAT2 genotyping was performed using DNA sequencing. The prognostic significance of NAT2 and other clinicopathological features was assessed by univariate and multivariate analyses.RESULTS: We observed no significant association between NAT2 genotypes and phenotypes and gastric cancer risk. The NAT2 phenotype polymorphisms and gastric cancer risk predisposition were not modified by concomitant H pylori infection and smoking. There was no significant association between NAT2 and clinicopathological features, and NAT2 had no independent prognostic signifi cance.CONCLUSION: In the current study, NAT2 genotypes and phenotypes are not associated with gastric cancer risk predisposition. Moreover NAT2 phenotypes had no clinicopathological associations or prognostic signif icance.展开更多
AIM:To investigate the associations between CDH1 gene polymorphisms and gastric cancer(GC) risk predisposition.METHODS:We analyzed four CDH1 polymorphisms(+54 T>C,-160 C>A,-616 G>C,-3159 T>C) in an Omani p...AIM:To investigate the associations between CDH1 gene polymorphisms and gastric cancer(GC) risk predisposition.METHODS:We analyzed four CDH1 polymorphisms(+54 T>C,-160 C>A,-616 G>C,-3159 T>C) in an Omani population,by extraction of genomic DNA from the peripheral blood of 192 patients with GC and 170 control participants and performed CDH1 genotyping using DNA sequencing.RESULTS:CDH1-160-AA genotype was associated with an increased risk of GC(OR = 3.6,95% CI:1.1-11.8)(P = 0.03).There was no significant association between the other polymorphisms and GC risk.The haplotype analysis of +54 T>C,-160 C>A,-616 G>C,-3159 T>C genotypes revealed that the OR of CCGC and CAGC haplotypes was 1.5(95% CI:0.7-3.5) and 1.5(95% CI:0.2-3.0),but did not reach statistical significance.CONCLUSION:The current study suggests that the-160 AA genotype was associated with an increased risk of GC in Oman.展开更多
