Chromosome 5p Region SNPs Are Associated with Risk of NSCLC among Women
Figure 1
(a) Associations between chromosome 5p SNPs and NSCLC risk among Caucasians by chromosome position. Blue markers signify SNPs examined in our study. Pink markers indicate associations between rs401681 and lung cancer risk identified in the Rafner et al. (2009) and Wang et al. (2008) papers [2, 3]. The region of 5p surrounding rs401681 is expanded in the figure. Pink and blue rectangles surround rs401681 in CLPTM1L (aka CRR9) and the region of SNPs included in our study in TERT, respectively. (b) Associations between chromosome 5p SNPs and NSCLC risk among African Americans by chromosome position. Blue markers signify SNPs examined in our study.
