Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Polymorphisms in Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) gene may influence EGFR production and/or activity, thereby modulating susceptibility to lung cancer. To test this hypothesis, we investigated the association between polymorphisms in the EGFR gene and the risk of lung cancer in a Korean population. METHODS: We first examined the frequencies of 39 candidate polymorphisms in the EGFR gene in 27...
