Abstract excerpt

Numerous candidate genes have been proposed as susceptibility factors for the development of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). Epidermal growth factor (EGF) and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) interaction plays a pivotal role in cell proliferation, differentiation, and tumourigenesis of epithelial tissues. To our knowledge, however, no study has examined the relationship between the EGF/EGFR and NPC. The...
