Exploring the Neandertal legacy of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma risk in Eurasians

Exploring the Neandertal legacy of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma risk in Eurasians

Abstract Background The genomes of present-day non-Africans are composed of 1–3% of Neandertal-derived DNA as a consequence of admixture events between Neandertals and anatomically modern humans about 50–60 thousand years ago. Neandertal-introgressed single nucleotide polymorphisms (aSNPs) have been...
