IGF2BP2 Polymorphisms Are Associated with Clinical Characteristics and Development of Oral Cancer.

Insulin-like growth factor 2 mRNA-binding protein 2 (IGF2BP2) is associated with insulin resistance, lipid metabolism, and tumorigenesis. However, the association between the IGF2BP2 polymorphism and oral cancer risk remains unclear. We recruited 1349 male patients with oral cancer and 1198 cancer-free controls.

FGFR4 Gene Polymorphism Reduces the Risk of Distant Metastasis in Lung Adenocarcinoma in Taiwan.

Fibroblast growth factor receptor 4 ( is involved in multiple physiological and pathological processes. Several genetic variants of have been shown to be associated with tumor progression in many cancers. However, its association, such as genetic variants and expression levels, with lung cancer is controversial.
