摘要:
Background and Objective: Cyclo-oxygenase-2 (COX-2, also known as prostaglandin synthase 2) influences carcinogenesis through regulation of angiogenesis, apoptosis, and cytokine expression. COX-2 is encoded by the gene PTGS2. Several studies have suggested that PTGS2 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are involved in gastrointestinal carcinogenesis. In this study, we observed the PTGS2 Val511Ala (5939T/C) polymorphism in the Chinese population for the first time, and investigated whether this polymorphism might contribute to gastric cancer in a case-control study conducted in the Gansu province of China, a high-risk area for gastric cancer.
