Elingarami et al. evaluated the potential association between NEIL2 SNPs (rs804270, 5′-UTR promoter region) and susceptibility to gastric carcinoma, and assessed whether genotypes affected the expression of NEIL2 mRNA37, they reported that there is an increased risk of gastric cancer in patients with genetic variants of NEIL2 SNP(rs804270). The gene discussed is NEIL2; the disease is gastric cancer.
