Abstract excerpt

Inherited variants of the vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene may influence cancer risk by altering the effect of vitamin D on cell growth and homeostasis. Studies have examined genotypes for common VDR polymorphisms, including a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) detected by Bsm1, a polyadenosine [poly(A)] repeat polymorphism, and a SNP detected by Fok1, as candidates for susceptibility to cancer, but most have not...
