Bcl-2 protein prolongs cell survival in the face of classical apoptotic stimuli, and is considered to be a suppressor of apoptosis. Bax plays a key role in apoptosis by accelerating cell death after an apoptotic stimulus. The aim of our study was to determine the roles of the Bax proapoptotic gene and the Bcl-2 antiapoptotic gene in the carcinogenesis of gastric cancer.
