In similar, an increased risk of gastric cancer was also observed for rs13361707</span> TC genotype (adjusted OR = 1.47, 95%CI: 1.01-2.14, p = 0.043; additive model: adjusted OR = 1.22, 95%CI: 1.02-1.47, p = 0.033).
TLR1 rs4833095 SNP was associated with an increased risk of GC in a European population, while PRKAA1 rs13361707 genetic variant was not linked with GC.
These findings indicate that the three SNPs (rs4072037, rs13361707 and rs2274223) identified in the GWASs may interact with H. pylori infection to increase the risk of GC.
We identified two new susceptibility loci for non-cardia gastric cancer at 5p13.1 (rs13361707 in the region including PTGER4 and PRKAA1; odds ratio (OR) = 1.41; P = 7.6 × 10(-29)) and 3q13.31 (rs9841504 in ZBTB20; OR = 0.76; P = 1.7 × 10(-9)).
