GM and KM allotypes-hereditary antigenic variants of immunoglobulin γ and κ chains, respectively-and the genetic variants of activating Fcγ receptors (FcγR) are associated with the immunobiology of several malignant diseases, but their role in susceptibility to prostate cancer has not been examined. This investigation aimed to determine whether these genes-individually or in particular epistatic...
