Abstract excerpt
Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the Displacement-loop (D-loop) region of mitochondrial DNA have been reported to be associated with cancer risk in various types of cancer. To assess the frequency of D-loop SNPs in a large series of liposarcoma and establish correlations with cancer risk, we sequenced the D-loop of 82 liposarcoma patients and analyzed their use as predictive biomarkers for liposarcoma...
