Genetic variants in selenoprotein genes increase risk of colorectal cancer.

abstract：:Oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) has a high incidence in southern Africa and a poor prognosis. Limited information is available on the contribution of genetic variants in susceptibility to OSCC in this region. However, recent genome-wide association studies have identified multiple susceptibility loci in Asi...
