Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To explore the possible association between six single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of Fas pathway genes and the risks of coal worker pneumoconiosis (GWP). METHODS: This case-control study consisted of 511 male patients with CWP and 530 male controls from the same coal mines. Five SNPs of Fas pathway genes were detected by restriction fragment length polymorphisms (PCR-RFLP) and CASP3 (rs6948) was...
