Lack of association between the unique LMP2 gene polymorphism and the outcome of lung cancer in a population of Chinese Han nationality.

Abstract excerpt

Lung cancer is characterized by a widely ranging incidence variation; it is the most common cancer in China. In this study we will assess the association of low-molecular-mass protease 2 (LMP2) gene codon 60 polymorphism with the risk of lung cancer. Genomic DNA of peripheral blood mononuclear cells was isolated from 207 patients with lung cancer and 264 healthy controls. DNA direct sequencing and polymerase...
