Abstract excerpt
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have discovered numerous genetic susceptibility loci including a cluster of alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) gene family for esophageal squamous-cell carcinoma (ESCC). However, the underlying mechanism has not fully been elucidated. In this study, we integrated the GWAS data, gene-drinking interaction, expression quantitative trait locus (eQTL) analysis and biochemical...
