Methylentetrahydrofolate reductase plays a central role in converting folate to methyl donor for DNA methylation. Genetic variations in folate metabolism are believed to contribute to the risk of acute lymphoblastic leukemia, colon, esophageal and stomach cancer, as well as cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. MTHFR C677T and A1298C polymorphisms are known to be risk factors for gastric cancer in the Chinese population. Therefore, we hypothesized that the MTHFR polymorphisms are associated with the risk of stomach cancer in Korean subjects.
