Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The incidence of single-nucleotide-polymorphisms with malignant potential in esophageal cancer tissues has only been sparsely investigated in the west. Hence, we explored the contribution of four long non-coding RNAs' polymorphisms HOTAIR rs920778, LINC00951 rs11752942, POLR2E rs3787016 and HULC rs7763881 in esophageal cancer susceptibility. METHODS AND RESULTS: Formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue...
