Abstract excerpt

KITLG/KIT pathway plays a vital role in multiple types of human cancer including head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). Genetic variations in KITLG and KIT may affect the expression or function of these genes, thereby modifying cancer risk. In this study, we evaluated the association of KITLG and KIT polymorphisms with HNSCC risk among Chinese population. Twenty-two tagging SNPs in KITLG and KIT genes...
