Abstract excerpt

Epidermal growth factor (EGF) plays a key role in survival of neural and glial precursor cells. A single nucleotide polymorphism of the EGF gene +61G/A in the 5'-untranslated region has been reported to be associated with susceptibility to glioma. The purpose of this study was to investigate the potential association between EGF +61G/A and brain glioma in a Chinese population. A case-control study involving 180...
