Collective effects of common SNPs and improved risk prediction in lung cancer

2017-02-08

Abstract excerpt

Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer deaths in both men and women in the US. While most sporadic lung cancer cases are related to environmental factors such as smoking, genetic susceptibility may also play an important role and a number of lung cancer associated single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have been identified although many remain to be found. The collective effects of genome wide minor alleles of...
