Abstract excerpt
Previous studies suggested that alterations in the energy metabolism might be underlying cancer initiation and progression. Polymorphisms of genes involved in energy metabolism regulation, such as peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator 1α (PPARGC1A), -β (PPARGC1B), and paraoxonase 1 (PON1), might confer susceptibility to esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) and partially explain its...
