METTL14 gene polymorphisms decrease Wilms tumor susceptibility in Chinese children
Abstract Background Wilms tumor is a highly heritable malignancy. Aberrant METTL14, a critical component of N6-methyladenosine (m6A) methyltransferase, is involved in carcinogenesis. The association between genetic variants in the METTL14 gene and Wilms tumor susceptibility remains to be fully eluci...
