The CTLA-4 gene encodes a T-cell receptor that is involved in the regulation of T-cell activation. Recent studies have demonstrated an association of a microsatellite polymorphism [variant lengths of a dinucleotide (AT)n repeat] lying in exon 3 of the CTLA-4 gene, specifically a 106-bp allele, with
## Abstract ## BACKGROUND: Polymorphisms in the cytotoxic Tβlymphocyte antigen 4 (__CTLAβ4__) gene have been implicated in susceptibility to cancer, but the many published studies have reported inconclusive results. The objective of the current study was to conduct a metaβanalysis investigating th
