Toll-like receptor 2 and 4 polymorphisms associated with Helicobacter pylori susceptibility and gastric cancer.

CONCLUSION: TLR4 rs10759932, but not TLR2 rs3804099 and rs3804100, was associated with risk of premalignant and/or malignant and H. pylori susceptibility. H. pylori infection seems to contribute to chronic gastritis, and premalignant/malignant supported the development of the premalignant/malignant lesions involved in H. pylori infection that is critical to gastric cancer in Thai patients.
