Abstract excerpt

The 8q24 region is a gene desert, although chromosomal aberrations and somatic amplification involving this region, including translocations involving the protooncogene c-MYC, have been frequently reported in people with cancer. To investigate the role of variants in 8q24 region, the authors analyzed data from a prospective study (n = 10,372 participants who were followed for 11 years) in which a large number of...
