Gastric Cancer

Description

In a review article on the genetic predisposition to gastric cancer, Bevan and Houlston (1999) concluded that several genes may be associated with an increased risk of gastric cancer.Gastric cancer is a manifestation of a number of inherited cancer predisposition syndromes, including hereditary nonpolyposis colon cancer (HNPCC1; see {120435}), familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP ), Peutz-Jeghers syndrome (PJS ), Cowden disease (CD ), and the Li-Fraumeni syndrome (OMIM ). See also hereditary diffuse gastric cancer (HDGC ).Canedo et al. (2007) provided a review of genetic susceptibility to gastric cancer in patients infected with Helicobacter pylori (see {600263}).
