## Abstract Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC), which is prevalent in China, is believed to be induced by environmental carcinogens. Accumulating evidence has shown that individual variation in DNA repair capacity resulting from genetic polymorphism influences risk of environmental carcinoge
## Abstract Investigation of potential association of SNPs (G870A, rs9344; G1722C, rs678653) of cyclin D1 gene (__CCND1__) with susceptibility to esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) in Kashmir valley (India). The study included 302 subjects comprising 151 ESCC cases and 151 controls. PCR‐RFLP
## Abstract Two non‐synonymous polymorphisms Arg194Trp and Arg399Gln in the DNA‐base excision repair gene X‐ray repair cross‐complementing group 1 (__XRCC1__) have been implicated in risk for esophageal cancer. However, the results from different studies remain controversial. The present meta‐analy
The human homologue of Drosophila patched (PTCH), located at chromosome 9q22.3, was recently identified as a candidate tumor suppressor gene for familial and sporadic basal cell carcinomas. Squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs) of the skin display allelic loss in this chromosomal region, which, in additio
## Abstract Esophageal cancer is a leading cause of cancer death, especially in developing countries. In high‐risk regions, squamous cell carcinoma is the most common type of esophageal cancer, and its etiology remains poorly understood. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the association bet
