The objective of this study was to investigate the susceptibility of rs2233408 T/C genotype in the promoter region of <it>IκBα </it>to gastric cancer and the association of this polymorphism with clinicopathologic variables in gastric cancer patients.</p> <p>Methods</p> <p>A population-based case-control study was conducted between 1999 and 2006 in Guangdong Province, China. A total of 564 gastric cancer patients and 566 healthy controls were enrolled in this study. rs2233408 genotypes in <it>IκBα </it>were analyzed by TaqMan SNP genotyping assay.</p> <p>Results</p> <p>Both rs2233408 T homozygote (TT) and T heterozygotes (TC and TT) had significantly reduced gastric cancer risk (TT: OR = 0.250, 95% CI = 0.069-0.909, <it>P </it>= 0.035; TC and TT: OR = 0.721, 95% CI = 0.530-0.981, <it>P </it>= 0.037), compared with rs2233408 C homozygote (CC). rs2233408 T heterozygotes were significantly associated with reduced risk of intestinal-type gastric cancer with ORs of 0.648 (95% CI = 0.459-0.916, <it>P </it>= 0.014), but not with the diffuse or mix type of gastric cancer.
