Abstract excerpt
Although a number of susceptibility loci for neuroblastoma (NB) have been identified by genome-wide association studies, it is still unclear whether variants in the HLA region contribute to NB susceptibility. In this study, we conducted a comprehensive genetic analysis of variants in the HLA region among 724 NB patients and 2863 matched controls from different cohorts. We exploited whole-exome sequencing data to...
