Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) poses one of the serious health problems in southern Chinese, with an incidence rate ranging from 15 to 50/100,000. In our previously linkage analysis, a locus on 3p21 was identified to link to NPC. In this study, family-based association analysis was performed to test the transmission disequilibrium of chromosome 3p in 18 high-risk nasopharyngeal carcinoma families of...
