Impact of CCL4 gene polymorphisms upon the progression of lung cancer in a Han Chinese cohort.

Abstract excerpt

Lung cancer is the most common malignancy in China and has a low survival rate amongst Han Chinese. The high mortality is largely attributed to late-stage diagnosis, when treatment is largely ineffective. Identification of genetic variants could potentially assist with earlier diagnosis and thus more effective treatment. Chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 4 (CCL4) plays a critical role as a chemoattractant in tumor...
