Abstract excerpt
Genome-wide association studies in patients with testicular germ-cell tumors (TGCT) from Great Britain and the United States have identified six susceptibility loci in or near biologically plausible candidate genes. However, these loci have not been replicated in an independent European sample. We performed a genetic replication study of previously identified TGCT susceptibility loci in a Croatian case-control...
