Abstract excerpt
Genetic variation in the CASP-8 gene reportedly can increase cancer susceptibility by regulating tumor cell proliferation and apoptosis. Several studies have investigated this possibility; however, the conclusions remain controversial. We made a Human Genome Epidemiology (HuGE) review and did a meta-analysis to explore the association between CASP-8 gene polymorphisms and cancer risk in Asian populations. Based...
