Abstract excerpt
Chemokine genes have been proposed as good candidate genes for conferring susceptibility to Bladder cancer (BC). We examined the combined effect of multiple alleles of pro inflammatory chemokine genes for determining the risk of BC. We tested association of three gene polymorphisms of CCL2I/D (rs3917887), CCL2A2518G (rs1024611) and CCR2V64I (rs1799864) with BC risk in North Indian population. Genotypes were...
