Abstract

This study aims to evaluate whether the c.1471G > A and c.1686C > G genetic polymorphisms of XRCC1 gene influencing gastric cancer susceptibility. A total of 813 subjects with Chinese Han ethnicity were enrolled. Our data suggest that the allele and genotype frequencies are significantly different from gastric cancer patients with cancer-free controls. We find that c.1471G > A and c.1686C > G genetic polymorphisms statistically increase the risk of gastric cancer. Our findings indicate these two genetic polymorphisms are related with the susceptibility to gastric cancer, and could be used as molecular markers for detecting gastric cancer in Chinese Han ethnicity.
