NR3C1 and gastric cancer: To test whether the variants in NR3C1 could modify the risk of gastric cancer, we evaluated the association between four SNPs (rs6194, rs12521436, rs33388 and rs4912913) in NR3C1 and gastric cancer risk in a case-control study with 1,113 gastric cancer cases and 1,848 cancer-free controls in a Chinese population.
