Genetic variants in FGFR2 and FGFR4 genes and skin cancer risk in the Nurses' Health Study

BACKGROUND: The human fibroblast growth factor (FGF) and its receptor (FGFR) play an important role in tumorigenesis. Deregulation of the FGFR2 gene has been identified in a number of cancer sites. Overexpression of the FGFR4 protein has been linked to cutaneous melanoma progression. Previous studie...
