A polymorphism (rs2295080) in mTOR promoter region and its association with gastric cancer in a Chinese population.

BACKGROUND: As an imperative part of PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway, mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) has been demonstrated to increase in gastric cancer cells and tumors. Our research explored the relationship between single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs2295080 in mTOR promoter region and the risk of...
