Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVE: Polymeric immunoglobulin receptor (pIgR) gene plays a central role in immune response, and is closely related to Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection. Therefore, it is an ideal candidate gene for research on genetic susceptibility of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). This study was designed to explore correlation of pIgR gene polymorphisms to genetic susceptibility of NPC. METHODS: Four single...
