Polymorphisms in the AKT1 and AKT2 genes and oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma risk in an Eastern Chinese population.
(Journal of cellular and molecular medicine, 2016-04)
Ethnic Han Chinese are at high risk of developing oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma
(ESCC). Aberrant activation of the AKT signalling pathway is involved in many cancers,
including ESCC. Some single nucleotide polymorphisms ...
Genetic variant rs4072037 of MUC1 and gastric cancer risk in an Eastern Chinese population.
(Oncotarget, 2016-03)
Published data on the association between the MUC1 rs4072037A > G polymorphism and
gastric cancer (GCa) risk were inconclusive. To derive a more precise estimation of
the association, we conducted a large GCa study of 1,124 ...
Genetic variant of PRKAA1 and gastric cancer risk in an eastern Chinese population.
(Oncotarget, 2015-12)
Published data on the association between PRKAA1 rs13361707 T > C polymorphism and
gastric cancer (GCa) susceptibility were inconclusive. To derive a more precise estimation
of the association, we conducted a large-scale ...
Associations of potentially functional variants in IL-6, JAKs and STAT3 with gastric cancer risk in an eastern Chinese population.
(Oncotarget, 2016-05)
The interleukin-6 (IL-6)/JAK/STAT3 signaling pathway plays a central role in inflammation-mediated
cancers, including gastric cancer (GCa). We evaluated associations between 10 potentially
functional single nucleotide ...
Polymorphisms in nucleotide excision repair genes and risk of primary prostate cancer in Chinese Han populations.
(Oncotarget, 2017-04)
Genetic variants of nucleotide excision repair (NER) genes have been extensively investigated
for their roles in the development of prostate cancer (PCa); however, the published
results have been inconsistent. In a hospital-based ...
Polymorphisms in the ERCC5 gene and risk of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) in Eastern Chinese populations.
(PloS one, 2012-01)
BACKGROUND: Excision repair cross complementing group 5 (ERCC5 or XPG) plays an important
role in regulating DNA excision repair; its functional single nucleotide polymorphisms
(SNPs) may alter DNA repair capacity and thus ...
A Functional Polymorphism (rs2494752) in the AKT1 Promoter Region and Gastric Adenocarcinoma Risk in an Eastern Chinese Population.
(Scientific reports, 2016-01-28)
AKT is an important signal transduction protein that plays a crucial role in cancer
development. Therefore, we evaluated associations between single nucleotide polymorphisms
(SNPs) in the AKT promoter region and gastric ...
Pri-miR-124 rs531564 and pri-miR-34b/c rs4938723 polymorphisms are associated with decreased risk of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma in Chinese populations.
(PloS one, 2014-01)
MicroRNAs are a new class of small non-protein-coding RNAs that sometimes function
as tumor suppressors or oncogenes. Aberrant expression and structural alteration of
microRNAs have been reported to be involved in tumorigenesis ...
PSCA polymorphisms and gastric cancer susceptibility in an eastern Chinese population.
(Oncotarget, 2016-02)
The prostate stem cell antigen (PSCA) gene, which encodes a prostate-specific antigen
(PSA), was identified as a gene involved in cell adhesion and proliferation. The associations
between the PSCA rs2294008 and rs2976392 ...
Associations of genotypes and haplotypes of IL-17 with risk of gastric cancer in an eastern Chinese population.
(Oncotarget, 2016-12)
Interleukin-17 plays a crucial role in inflammation-related carcinogenesis. We hypothesize
that genetic variants in IL-17 are associated with gastric cancer (GCa) risk, and
we genotyped five potentially functional single ...
