Association between polymorphisms in ERCC2 gene and oral cancer risk: evidence from a meta-analysis.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Breast cancer is the most common invasive cancer among women. Currently, there are only a few models used for therapy selection, and they are often poor predictors of therapeutic response or take months to set up and assay. In this report, we introduce a microfluidic OrganoPlate® platform for extracellular m...
