Evidence for interaction between the <i>TCO</i> and <i>NMTC1</i> loci in familial non-medullary thyroid cancer

Abstract

These results provide further evidence that susceptibility genes for fNMTC exist at 19p13 and 2q21, and furthermore, raise the possibility that in a subset of fNMTC pedigrees, these loci interact resulting in significantly increased risk of NMTC for patients that carry both susceptibility loci.
