Large-scale evaluation of candidate genes identifies associations between VEGF polymorphisms and bladder cancer risk.

Large-scale evaluation of candidate genes identifies associations between VEGF polymorphisms and bladder cancer risk.

Common genetic variation could alter the risk for developing bladder cancer. We conducted a large-scale evaluation of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in candidate genes for cancer to identify common variants that influence bladder cancer risk. An Illumina GoldenGate assay was used to genotype...
