Genetic basis for susceptibility to lung cancer: Recent progress and future directions.

Advances in cancer research - 1 Jan 2010

Yokota Jun, Shiraishi Kouya, Kohno Takashi

Abstract excerpt

Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death worldwide, and cigarette smoking is the major environmental factor for its development. To elucidate the genetic differences in the susceptibility to lung cancer among individuals, genetic factors involved in tobacco-induced lung cancers have been extensively investigated and a number of genetic polymorphisms have been identified to date as candidates. Most of the...
