Four genetic polymorphisms of lymphotoxin-alpha gene and cancer risk: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Lymphotoxin-alpha (LTA) is a pro-inflammatory cytokine that plays an important role in the inflammatory and immunologic response. Numerous studies have shown LTA polymorphisms as risk factors for cancers, but the results remain inconclusive. The goal of the present meta-analyses is to establish the...
