Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to identify novel genetic variants in the CR2 extracellular domain of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) in healthy individuals and patients with six different types of adenocarcinoma, in Arabian peninsula populations. It also aimed to investigate the effects of these variants on the EGFR structure and their eventual relevance to tumorigenesis. RESULTS: We detected seven new...
