MiR-143HG Gene Polymorphisms as Risk Factors for Gastric Cancer in Chinese Han Population

摘要

Background: MicroRNA (miRNA) is a pivotal regulator of the occurrence and development of various cancers. And gastric cancer (GC) is one of the most common and deadly cancers in the world. The aim of this study is to explore whether the microRNA-143 host gene (miR-143HG) polymorphisms are correlated with the risk of GC.
