N-acetyltransferase 2 (NAT2) is a polymorphic enzyme that plays an important role in the metabolism of various potential carcinogens. NAT2 can be subdivided into rapid and slow acetylation phenotype according to the different genotypes. Studies investigating the association between NAT2 polymorphisms and gastric cancer risk in humans showed conflicting results. The aim of this study was to conduct a meta-analysis assessing the association of NAT2 acetylation phenotype with risk of gastric cancer.
