Abstract
Aim: Gastric cancer (GC) is the leading cause of cancer death, and is associated with host genetic factors. This study aimed to determine the impact of SP4 polymorphisms on GC. Materials & methods: Four hundred and eighty-nine GC patients and 481 healthy subjects were recruited. The association between single nucleotide polymorphisms and GC risk was investigated by logistic regression analysis. Results: It was observed that rs39302 and rs7811417 were related to a decreased GC risk. Stratified analyses showed that rs39302 decreased GC susceptibility at ages ≤60 years, in men, GC patients who had previously smoked and drank. rs7811417 had a risk-decreasing impact on the patients aged ≤60 years, in men, GC patients who were nonsmoking and nondrinking. rs35929923 decreased the GC risk of patients in grade III–IV and the lymph node metastasis subgroup. Conclusion: SP4 gene polymorphisms are associated with GC risk.
