RECK Gene Polymorphism is Associated with Susceptibility and Prognosis of Wilms' Tumor in Chinese Children.

Background Wilms’ tumor (WT) is the most common malignant renal tumor in children. Previous studies suggested the reversion-inducing, cysteine-rich protein with Kazal motifs (RECK) down-regulation might have a role in numerous human cancers. The current study was done to investigate the associations of RECK single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with the WT susceptibility in Chinese children.
