Lesiones preneoplásicas gástricas en pacientes colombianos: asociación de polimorfismos genéticos interleucinas 1B-511, 1RN, 10-819, 10-1082, factor de necrosis tumoral-α-308 y anticuerpos inmunoglobulina G hacia cagA de Helicobacter pylori

The results suggest that, among the pro-inflammatory genotypes, the IL-1B-511TT would be associated with intestinal metaplasia, and that a positive Helicobacter pylori cagA serology could be a useful biomarker for the intervention and prevention of pre-cancerous lesions. Further studies are required in the Colombian population in order to evaluate the relationship found between IL1B-511 and intestinal metaplasia.
