The present study aimed to investigate whether single nucleotide polymorphisms in receptor interacting serine/threonine kinase 2 ( ), which encodes a component of the nucleotide binding oligomerization domain containing 2-RIP2 pathway, may compromise the innate immune response to infection, leading to increased susceptibility to gastric cancer in the Japanese population. The present case control study investigated the associations between single nucleotide polymorphisms and gastric mucosal inflammation, atrophy and cancer susceptibility in 528 patients with gastric cancer and 697 patients without gastric malignancies on upper gastro-duodenal endoscopy. Overall, the rs16900627 minor allele was significantly associated with the susceptibility to gastric cancer OR, 1.37; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.06-1.77; P=0.016, particularly of the intestinal type (OR, 1.53; 95% CI, 1.13-2.07; P=0.0062). It was also significantly associated with gastric mucosal atrophy (OR, 1.83; 95% CI, 1.14-2.93; P=0.011). When assessing the severity of chronic gastritis using the updated Sydney system, the activity and inflammation scores, as well as atrophy and metaplasia scores, were significantly higher in rs16900627 minor allele carriers compared with wild-type homozygotes. In patients younger than 60 years old, the pepsinogen I/II ratio was significantly lower in rs16900627 minor allele carriers compared with wild-type homozygotes (P=0.037). The rs16900627 minor allele is associated with the severity of gastric mucosal inflammation and the development of gastric mucosal atrophy. Carriers of this allele may have an increased risk for the development of gastric cancer, particularly of the intestinal type.
