Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: Four genome-wide association (GWA) studies have found that variation in a region of strong linkage disequilibrium on the long arm of chromosome 15 (15q24-25.1) containing nicotinic acetylcholine receptor genes contributes to lung cancer risk. Because cigarette smoking is a major risk factor for developing both lung cancer and pancreatic cancer, we hypothesized that variation in this region may also...
