Promoter polymorphisms and transcript levels of nicotinic receptor CHRNA5.

Journal of the National Cancer Institute - 8 Sept 2010

Abstract excerpt

Chromosomal locus 15q25, implicated in lung cancer risk and nicotine dependence, shows extensive linkage disequilibrium that complicates identification of causal variation. Cholinergic receptor nicotinic alpha5 (CHRNA5) has been identified as a lung cancer risk factor. We identified by sequence a...
