Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Recently, several polymorphisms located on human chromosome 8q24 were found to be associated with prostate cancer risk with different frequency and incidence among the investigated populations. The authors conducted a prostate cancer case-control study in the Greek population to evaluate the association of the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs6983267, located at region 3 of chromosome 8q24, with...
