Figure 2. Haplotype effect on serum MMP-1 concentration.

Figure 2

Serum MMP-1 level in patients with lower stomach cancer with risk haplotypes (n = 54), and upper stomach cancer with non risk haplotypes (n = 15) were compared by ELISA. Results showed patients with lower stomach cancer exhibit a 1.43 fold higher MMP-1 level than in upper stomach cancer patients (p<0.05 by t-test) (box whisker diagram).
