    Identification of genetic variants in m6A modification genes associated with pancreatic cancer risk in the Chinese population

    N6-Methyladenosine (m6A) is the most prevalent modification of RNA in eukaryotes, and is associated with many cellular processes and even the development of cancers. We hypothesized that single-nucleotide polymor...

    Exome-wide analyses identify low-frequency variant in CYP26B1 and additional coding variants associated with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma

    Genome-wide association studies have identified common variants associated with risk of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). However, these common variants cannot explain all heritability of ESCC. Here w...
