Abstract excerpt
Intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1, encoded by ICAM-1) is implicated in tumorigenesis and tumor progression. ICAM-1 modulates the susceptibility to several types of cancer and the disease prognosis; however, its role in epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is unclear. Here, we evaluate single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in ICAM-1 as predictors of EOC risk and prognosis. Six ICAM-1 polymorphisms were...
