Abstract excerpt
Worldwide, rates of esophageal cancer have been keeping highly in recent decades. Genetic variants in multiple cellular pathways might play an important role in altering risk of esophageal carcinoma. In this study, long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) functional single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were investigated in Chinese Han populations. We have genotyped the ANRIL rs2151280 T/C, POLR2E rs3787016 C/T, and HULC...
