Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: Inherited genetic variability contributes to susceptibility to cervical cancer. We investigated the association of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the human epidermal growth factor receptor (ERBB) family with cervical cancer. METHODS: We used the transmission disequilibrium test (TDT) to look for excessive transmission of tag single nucleotide polymorphisms (tSNPs) in ERBB family members...
