Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: This study aims to explore the associations of polymorphisms in tachykinin, precursor 1 (TAC1), tachykinin receptor 1 (TACR1), and tachykinin receptor 2 (TACR2) genes and their interactions with the risk of colorectal cancer (CRC) among Chinese population. METHODS: A population-based case-control study which included 394 cases and 393 cancer-free controls was carried out. A total of 19 tagSNPs in the...
