Renin-Angiotensin System Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms Are Associated with Bladder Cancer Risk

Renin-Angiotensin System Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms Are Associated with Bladder Cancer Risk

The renin-angiotensin system (RAS), besides being a major regulator of blood pressure, is also involved in tumor angiogenesis. Emerging evidence suggests a correlation between the use of pharmacologic RAS inhibitors and a delay in urothelial bladder cancer (BC) progression. However, it is unknown wh...
