<h4>Aim</h4>To identify genetic polymorphisms in the promoter region of the human base excision repair gene NEIL1 in gastric cancer patients.<h4>Methods</h4>The NEIL1 promoter region in DNA from 80 Japanese patients with gastric cancer was searched for genetic polymorphisms by polymerase chain reaction-single-strand conformation polymorphism and subsequent sequencing analyses.<h4>Results</h4>Three novel genetic polymorphisms, i.e. c.-3769C>T, c.-3170T>G, and c.-2681TA[8], were identified in the ...[more]
