AIM: To examine the aberrant expression of fragile histidine triad (FHIT) gene and protein in gastric cancer, and to evaluate the role of FHIT gene and the relationship between FHIT gene and EBV infection in gastric carcinogenesis. METHODS: FHIT transcripts were detected by nested RT-PCR in 30 cases of gastric cancer and their products were sequenced. FHIT protein was detected by Western blot. EBV infection was detected by PCR method in 50 cases of gastric cancer. RESULTS: The wild type transcripts were detected in all 30 matched normal tissues of gastric cancer. Aberrant transcripts were found in 11/30 (36.7%) gastric cancerous tissues. Sequencing analysis of the aberrant fragments found an RT-PCR product missing exons 5-7 in one cas
