Lack of association between EGF +61A>G polymorphism and melanoma susceptibility in Caucasians: a HuGE review and meta-analysis.

Gene - 25 Feb 2013

Abstract excerpt

Emerging evidence showed that the common polymorphism (+61A>G, rs4444903) in the promoter region of epidermal growth factor (EGF) gene might be associated with melanoma susceptibility in humans. But individually published results are inconclusive. The aim of this Human Genome Epidemiology (HuGE) review and meta-analysis is to derive a more precise estimation of the association between EGF +61A>G polymorphism and...
