Abstract excerpt
Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have identified multiple single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with colorectal cancer (CRC) susceptibility. However, the elucidation of causal SNPs and the biological mechanisms behind are still limited. In this study, we initially performed systematic bioinformatics analyses on CRC GWAS-identified loci to seek for potential functional SNPs located at...
