## Abstract Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) play a crucial role in cancer progression and their overβexpression is often associated with unfavorable survival of nonβsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Because genetic variants can alter expression level or biological activity of MMPs, we hypothesized t
## Abstract Interleukinβ23 (ILβ23)/ILβ23 receptor (ILβ23R) is essential for Th17 cellβmediated immune response, involved in autoimmune diseases and cancer pathogenesis. Two potentially functional genetic single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs; __ILβ23R__ rs6682925 T>C and rs1884444 T>G) were found t
