Abstract excerpt

NPC is an epithelial tumor that is highly prevalent among the southern Chinese. Numerous studies have indicated that specific HLA haplotypes and genes within the HLA complex are associated with NPC. As a first effort to localize the gene responsible for susceptibility, the HLA-A, -B, and -A2 subtypes were examined for their association to NPC. Consistent with previous reports, frequencies of HLA-A2 [OR = 2.50, pc...
