Circadian pathway genetic variation and cancer risk: evidence from genome-wide association studies

Circadian pathway genetic variation and cancer risk: evidence from genome-wide association studies

Abstract Background Dysfunction of the circadian clock and single polymorphisms of some circadian genes have been linked to cancer susceptibility, although data are scarce and findings inconsistent. We aimed to investigate the association between circadian pathway genetic variation and risk of devel...
