Core Tip |
The development of gastric cancer (GC) is suggested to be related to the interactions of bacterial virulence and host genetic factors with the immune response of the host. The effects of polymorphisms in the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) gene may regulate the degree of the inflammatory response of the host leading to the gastric malignancies. We could not detect any prominent HLA alleles between the patient and control groups in terms of CagA+ multiple (≥ 2) EPIYA-C repeat numbers. HLA-DQA1*01, HLA-DQB1*06, and HLA-A*02 were detected as independent risk factors for the risk of GC and duodenal ulcer with no criterion in multivariate analyses. We suggest that the association of these alleles with gastric malignancies is not specifically related to cagA and multiple EPIYA C repeats. |
