Genetic variations in a PTEN/AKT/mTOR axis and prostate cancer risk in a Chinese population.

Genetic variations in a PTEN/AKT/mTOR axis and prostate cancer risk in a Chinese population.

Genetic variations in a PTEN/AKT/mTOR signaling axis may influence cellular functions including cell growth, proliferation and apoptosis, and then increase the individual's risk of cancer. Accordingly, we explore the association between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of these genes and...
