Abstract excerpt
Polymorphisms within a gene's 3'-UTR may modulate posttranscriptional regulation of gene expression, and may explain individual sensitivity of chemotherapy. To investigate the correlation between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in 3'-UTRs of B7/CD28 family genes and the response of capecitabine-based chemotherapy in colon cancer, 16 SNPs were identified in 274 advanced colon cancer patients. Statistical...
