1 18287876 We studied the associations between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in cyclooxygenase 1 and 2 (PTGS1 and PTGS2), inducible nitric oxide synthase (NOS2A), interferon gamma (IFNG) and its receptor (IFNGR1), and risk of gastric precancerous lesions in a Venezuelan population characterized by high rates of H. pylori infection.
2 18287876 A nonsynonymous SNP of NOS2A (Ser608Leu) and an SNP located in the promoter of IFNGR1 (C-56T) were associated with higher risk of atrophic gastritis [odds ratio (OR)=1.37, 95% confidence interval (CI)=1.01-1.86, and OR=1.49, 95% CI=1.01-2.19, respectively].
