Genetic variants of SP‐D confer susceptibility to radiation pneumonitis in lung cancer patients undergoing thoracic radiation therapy

Abstract Background Surfactant protein D (SP‐D) is an innate immunity molecule in the alveoli. However, the associations between genetic variants of SP‐D and radiation pneumonitis (RP) have never been investigated. Methods The Linkage disequilibrium of SP‐D and tagSNPs were analyzed by using Haplovi...
