Association of genetic polymorphisms with survival of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma patients.

abstract：:The oncoprotein ErbB3 is overexpressed in several human cancers, for example in pancreatic adenocarcinoma and in ovarian cancers, and ErbB3-containing heterodimers have been demonstrated to be potent signaling units in carcinogenesis. This especially applies to ErbB2-ErbB3 and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-E...
