Abstract excerpt

It was reported that there are 2 haplotypes in natural killer complex (NKC) region. One of them could be divided by NKG2D polymorphism into 2 haplotype alleles (high and low natural killer (NK) cell activity) and were associated with overall cancer risks. However, its impact on a specific cancer is unclear. Therefore, by a case-control study, we analyzed the association between NKG2D genotype and aerodigestive...
