(The American journal of psychiatry, 2009-10)
The purpose of this article was to estimate the prevalence, distribution, and correlates
of at-risk alcohol use (especially binge drinking) among middle-aged and elderly persons
in the United States and to compare at-risk ...

Sequence variations in DNA repair gene XPC is associated with lung cancer risk in a Chinese population: a case-control study.
(BMC cancer, 2007-01)
BACKGROUND: The nucleotide excision repair (NER) protein, xeroderma pigmentosum C
(XPC), participates in recognizing DNA lesions and initiating DNA repair in response
to DNA damage. Because mutations in XPC cause a high ...
Polymorphisms in thymidylate synthase gene and susceptibility to breast cancer in a Chinese population: a case-control analysis.
(BMC cancer, 2006-01)
BACKGROUND: Accumulative evidence suggests that low folate intake is associated with
increased risk of breast cancer. Polymorphisms in genes involved in folate metabolism
may influence DNA methylation, nucleotide synthesis, ...
Polymorphisms of TGFB1 and VEGF genes and survival of patients with gastric cancer.
(Journal of experimental & clinical cancer research : CR, 2009-06-30)
Some TGFB1 and VEGF polymorphisms are believed to be functional. Given that these
genes are involved in tumor growth and progression including angiogenesis, dissemination,
and invasiveness, we hypothesized that ...
The VEGF -634G>C promoter polymorphism is associated with risk of gastric cancer.
(BMC gastroenterology, 2009-10-16)
Both TGF-beta1 and VEGF play a critic role in the multiple-step process of tumorgenesis
of gastric cancer. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the TGFB1 and VEGF genes
have been associated with risk and progression ...
