Comparative proteomic analysis in serum of former uranium miners with and without radon induced squamous lung cancer
Abstract Summary Former uranium miners of the Wismut Company, East Germany, have been exposed to ionizing radiation from radon decay products and therefore were at high risk for lung cancer. Since histological types of cancer in the so called Wismut cohort revealed an association of high radon expos...
