Replication and predictive value of SNPs associated with melanoma and pigmentation traits in a Southern European case-control study.
BACKGROUND: Genetic association studies have revealed numerous polymorphisms conferring susceptibility to melanoma. We aimed to replicate previously discovered melanoma-associated single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in a Greek case-control population, and examine their predictive value. METHODS:...
