Although the function of rs10512263 remains unclear, TGF-β signaling has been suggested to promote gastric cancer progression by enhancing motility and inducing invasiveness of gastric cancer cell [11], or by promoting tumor vasculature conformation [30], which could be partly explained for the predictive role of TGFBR1 rs10512263 in gastric cancer patients. This evidence concerns the gene TGFB1 and neoplasm.
