Abstract excerpt
Genetic variations at microRNA and microRNA processing genes are known to confer risk of cancer in different populations. Here, we studied variations at eight microRNA (miRNA) and four miRNA processing genes in 452 controls and 451 oral cancer patients by TaqMan genotyping assays. Variant allele-containing genotypes at mir-196a2 and variant allele homozygous genotype at Ran increased the risk of cancer...
