Abstract excerpt
The pulmonary adenoma susceptibility 1 (Pas1) gene affects susceptibility to the development of lung adenomas in mice with a subset of the adenomas progressing to adenocarcinoma (ADC). In this study, genotype distributions for 10 polymorphisms in the human counterparts for three mouse candidate Pas1 genes, KRAS, CASC1/LAS1 and LRMP, were examined in a hospital-based case-control study consisting of 364 lung ADC...
