Abstract excerpt
The alteration of caveolin-1 (Cav-1) during carcinogenesis is of great interest and its over-expression in the tumor cell cytoplasm can predict a poor prognosis of renal cell carcinoma (RCC). However, whether the over-expression in RCC is associated with inherited polymorphism is not clear. In this hospital-based case-control study, the association of Cav-1 genotypes with RCC risk in a central Taiwanese...
