Abstract excerpt
The abundant expression of collagen type VI α5 (COL6A5) exists in lung tissue, and its role in lung cancer is still unknown. We performed a genetic association study with an attempt to detect the relationships between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in COL6A5 and lung cancer predisposition in Chinese Han population. We finally selected six tag-SNPs to determine their genotypes among 510 lung cancer...
