Abstract excerpt

Prostaglandin synthase 2 (PTGS2) mediated production of prostaglandins is an important step in the inflammatory response. In a population-based case-cohort study, we investigated the relationship between lung cancer and a polymorphism in PTGS2 at site 8473. Among 54,220 cohort members, 265 lung cancer cases and a comparison group of 272 individuals were identified. We found no overall significant association...
