A genetic variant in the immune-related gene ERAP1 affects colorectal cancer prognosis.
Findings on the association of genetic factors and colorectal cancer (CRC) survival are limited and inconsistent, and revealing the mechanism underlying their prognostic roles is of great importance. This study aimed to explore the relationship between functional genetic variations and the prognosis of CRC and further reveal the possible mechanism. ⋯ The rs71630754 could influence the prognosis of CRC patients by regulating the expression of the immune-related gene ERAP1 .
