Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The minor allele of two caspase 8 polymorphisms, namely CASP8 -652 6N InsDel (rs3834129) and CASP8 Asp302His (rs1045485), were repeatedly associated with reduced breast cancer susceptibility. Contrarily, the presence of the -652 6N Del or the CASP8 302His variant was reported to be an unfavorable prognostic factor in colorectal cancer or neuroblastoma. However, prognostic relevance of these genetic...
