Abstract excerpt
To investigate the association between chromosome 8p11 (CHRNB3-CHRNA6) polymorphisms and lung cancer susceptibility in Chinese Han population, we genotyped 6 tag SNPs variants of this region among 784 patients with lung cancer and 782 age- and sex-matched cancer-free control participants to screen for any risk-associated SNPs. The results revealed that rs16891561 TT genotype had a protective effect against lung...
