Some Iranian provinces,such as in the northern and northwestern areas, are at a high risk, whereas the central and western provinces are ata medium and the southern regions at low risk. This study was carried out to estimate the impact of the expressionpatterns of ASIC1 and IL-6 genes and the IL-6rs-174 and ASIC1rs 75624685 polymorphisms in the pathogenesis ofgastric cancer. Materials and methods: Tetra-ARMS PCR was employed to analyze the polymorphism status of theASIC1 and IL-6 genes with 85 paraffin-embedded tissue blocks from cases and 117 normal blood samples as controls.We also investigated mRNA expression levels of these genes in 12 cases and controls using real-time PCR. Results:Our results showed a significant association between expression of ASIC1 and elevated risk of gastric cancer (p<0.001).}, keywords = {Gastric cancer,Polymorphism,Expression,IL-6,ASIC1}, url = {https://journal.waocp.org/article_77409.html}, eprint = {https://journal.waocp.org/article_77409_d61c81d9b0116c7b432ba8b983b06032.pdf} }
