The CAG repeat polymorphism of androgen receptor gene and prostate cancer: a meta-analysis.

Molecular biology reports - 1 Mar 2012

Gu Mingliang, Dong Xiaoqun, Zhang Xuezhi, Niu Wenquan

Abstract excerpt

The association between the polymorphic CAG repeat in androgen receptor gene (AR) and prostate cancer susceptibility has been studied extensively. However, the results are contradictory. The purpose of our meta-analysis was to investigate whether CAG repeat related to prostate cancer risk and had genetic heterogeneity across different geographic regions and study designs. Random-effects model was performed...
