Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Wilms tumor is a highly heterogeneous tumor, and patients with high-risk Wilms tumor still do not have a good prognosis. DNA instability caused by abnormal genes in the base excision repair (BER) pathway is closely related to cancer. However, the important role of BER pathway gene variants in Wilms tumor remains largely unknown. METHODS: We enrolled 621 patients with Wilms tumor and 1737 controls from...
