Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Lymphotoxin-alpha (LTA) is a pro-inflammatory cytokine with anti-tumor activity. The objective of this study was to determine whether LTA polymorphisms influence the presence of cancer. METHODS: LTA polymorphisms C804A (rs1041981, T60N) and T495C (rs2229094, C13R) were determined in 1...
