Abstract excerpt
AIM: To study the contribution of genetic variation in RAD51 to risk of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). METHODS: Three single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in RAD51 (rs1801320, rs4144242 and rs4417527) were genotyped in 316 ESCC patients and 316 healthy controls in Anyang area of China using PCR- RFLP (polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism). Demographic variables between...
