Abstract excerpt
The development of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is a multifactorial process, and associations between genetic variants and ESCC have been identified in genome-wide association studies. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of long intergenic non-coding RNAs (lincRNAs) on ESCC susceptibility in Chinese populations. We scoured exons of lincRNAs...
