Associations of fibroblast growth factor 21 gene 3' untranslated region single-nucleotide polymorphisms with metabolic syndrome, obesity, and diabetes in a Han Chinese population.

abstract：:The ras oncogene exists in a variety of human cancers, including carcinomas of bladder, breast, colon, kidney, liver, lung, ovary, pancreas, and stomach. The ras genes acquire transforming activity either by enhanced expression or by a single point mutation. A single base-pair mutation at specific sites within ras gen...
