CASP7 variants modify susceptibility to cervical cancer in Chinese women.
(Scientific reports, 2015-01)
Polymorphisms in Caspase-7 (CASP7) may modulate the programmed cell death and thus
contribute to cervical cancer risk. In this case-control study of 1,486 cervical cancer
cases and 1,301 controls, we investigated associations ...
Potentially functional polymorphisms in the ERCC2 gene and risk of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma in Chinese populations.
(Scientific reports, 2014-01)
ERCC2 is indispensable for nucleotide excision repair pathway, and its functional
polymorphisms may be associated with cancer risk. In a large case-control study of
1126 esophageal squamous cell carcinomas (ESCC) patients ...
A pri-miR-218 variant and risk of cervical carcinoma in Chinese women.
(BMC cancer, 2013-01-15)
BACKGROUND: MicroRNA (miRNA)-related single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) may compromise
miRNA binding affinity and modify mRNA expression levels of the target genes, thus
leading to cancer susceptibility. However, few ...
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 ...
Potentially functional polymorphisms in the CASP7 gene contribute to gastric adenocarcinoma susceptibility in an eastern Chinese population.
(PloS one, 2013-01)
BACKGROUND: Caspase 7 (CASP7) is an important regulator and executioner in the apoptosis
pathway and plays a crucial role in cancer development and progression. However, few
studies have evaluated associations between functional ...
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 ...
Polymorphisms in ERCC1 and XPF genes and risk of gastric cancer in an eastern Chinese population.
(PloS one, 2012-01)
BACKGROUND: Inherited functional single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in DNA repair
genes may alter DNA repair capacity and thus contribute to cancer risk. METHODS: Three
ERCC1 functional SNPs (rs2298881C>A, rs3212986C>A ...
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 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 ...
