Abstract excerpt
Common genetic mutations are absent in neuroblastoma, one of the most common childhood tumours. As a demethylase of 5-methylcytosine (m5C) modification, TET1 plays an important role in tumourigenesis and differentiation. However, the association between TET1 gene polymorphisms and susceptibility to neuroblastoma has not been reported. Three TET1 gene polymorphisms (rs16925541 A > G, rs3998860 G > A and rs12781492...
