Genetic Polymorphisms in Matrix Metalloproteinases -1 and -7 and Susceptibility to Gastric Cancer: an Association Study and Meta-Analysis

Matrix Metalloproteinases (MMPs) play an important role in gastric cancer (GC). Accumulated evidence suggests that functional MMP-1 and MMP-7 gene polymorphisms are associated with several tumors. The aim of this study was to investigate two single nucleotide polymorphisms, MMP-1 -1607 1G/2G and MM...
