title: IFRD1 polymorphisms and gastric cancer risk in a Chinese population.
abstract: The association between gene polymorphisms of IFRD1 and gastric cancer is not clear. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between IFRD1 polymorphisms and gastric cancer in Chinese population. Fifty-three consecutive patients with the diagnosis of gastric cancer were defined as the case group, and another 50 healthy donors were denoted as the control group. About 4 ml of peripheral blood was collected from each donor for extracting DNA. Finally, IFRD1 rs7818, rs3807213, and rs6968084 SNPs were detected with polymerase chain reaction. C/C genotype distribution frequencies of rs6968084 and rs7817 in gastric cancer patients were similar with the controls (OR 0.192, 95 % CI 0.513-2.769, P = 0.683 and OR 2.075, 95 % CI 0.744-5.792, P = 0.16, respectively). Patients with gastric cancer had a significantly higher frequency of rs3807213 C allele and rs3807213 C/C genotype than controls. (OR 4.028, 95 % CI 1.513-10.72, P = 0.004) (OR 3.759, 95 % CI 1.521-9.294, P = 0.003). This study suggests that the SNPs of IFRD1 rs7818 and rs6968084 have nothing to do with the gastric cancer susceptibility. The allele gene C and genotype C/C of rs3807213 SNP are involved in susceptibility to gastric cancer, but there were no relations when subgroup stratified all the three SNPs according to pathological stages.
