Genetic polymorphisms at TIMP3 are associated with survival of adenocarcinoma of the gastroesophageal junction.

Genetic polymorphisms at TIMP3 are associated with survival of adenocarcinoma of the gastroesophageal junction.

The poor survival of adenocarcinomas of the gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) makes them clinically important. Discovery of host genetic factors that affect outcome may guide more individualized treatment. This study tests whether constitutional genetic variants in matrix metalloproteinases (MMP) and...
