Abstract excerpt
Genetic variants at 5p15 have been associated with multiple cancers risk, suggesting pleiotropic effect on cancer. We hypothesized that genetic variants at 5p15 are important in the development of gastric cancer. To test this hypothesis, we evaluated the associations of genetic variants at 5p15 with gastric cancer based on our existing genome-wide association study (GWAS) data set of gastric cancer (1006 cases...
