We investigated the allelic frequencies of TLR4 (D299G and T399I) and NOD2/CARD15 (R702W, G908R, and L1007finsC) SNPs in 87 asymptomatic serologically H. pylori-positive individuals (Group I), in 63 patients with antrum-predominant gastritis (Group II) and in 60 patients with corpus-predominant gastritis or pangastritis (Group III).
