Abstract excerpt
Accumulation of mutations and single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the displacement loop (D-loop) of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) has been identified for their association with cancer risk and disease outcome in a variety of cancers. We have identified cancer risk-associated D-loop SNPs in gastric cancer patients. In this study, we evaluated the predictive value of these SNPs for cancer outcome. Two SNP sites...
