SSBP1 and gastric cancer: In the present study, we firstly evaluated the effects of two potential functional SNPs in the 5′-untranslated region (UTR) of SSBP1 on GC patients’ prognosis in a training cohort (n = 326) and found that SNP rs6976500 contributed to poor survival of GC, which further validated in an independent validation cohort (n = 704).
