Abstract excerpt
Recent genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified variants in phospholipase C epsilon1 (PLCE1) as novel susceptibility markers for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) in Chinese population. Although few studies have replicated this findings in other populations, but results are contradictory. So, we aimed to replicate association of two previously reported non-synonymous polymorphisms...
