Abstract:BackgroundPeroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-β/δ (PPARβ/δ) is a transcription factor that has the potential to be associated with the development of colorectal cancer (CRC). However, the exact role of PPARδ in the context of CRC development remains to be clarified. This present study was thus designed to understand the association between CRC risk and the PPARδ-87T>C single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in a western Chinese Han population. MethodsThe PPARδ-87T>C (rs2016520) polymorphism was analy… Show more
