Abstract excerpt
We conducted a two-stage association study on patients with oropharynx (OP) squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and healthy controls to identify single nucleotide variants (SNVs) located at the microRNA (miR)-binding sites of carcinogenesis genes associated with risk and prognosis of the disease. In stage 1, 49 patients and 49 controls were analyzed using Genome-Wide Human SNV Arrays to identify variants in the...
