Abstract excerpt
Cancer and obesity are two important public health problems. This study aimed to investigate the role of genetic variants and haplotypes of miRNA host genes in cancer and obesity. Data from the catalog of genome-wide association studies (GWAS) were used to find significant variants (index). Then, 1000-genome phase 3 data were used to find haplotypic variants (proxy) associated with these diseases. The candidate...
