“…In recent two decades, polymorphisms of eNOS gene have gained attention for susceptibility of tumorigenesis or carcinogenesis, as well as cancer invasion and metastasis. Several studies focused on the associations of its three major polymorphisms, namely G894T, T-786C and VNTR 4a/b, and different cancers, such as bladder 13 - 15 , 22 , colorectum 14 , 15 , 23 , breast 11 , 13 , 14 , 24 - 26 , prostate 14 , 17 , 27 - 33 , stomach 14 , 34 , lung 35 - 41 , liver 10 , 14 , 42 , gallbladder 43 , pancreas 44 , and others 14 , 45 - 47 . There were also different researches investigating correlation of eNOS polymorphisms and responsiveness of different therapies toward malignancies, such as chemotherapy, targeted therapy and radiotherapy 5 , 10 , 38 , 48 - 53 .…”
