Recently, we reported a statistically significant association between genetic polymorphisms in the death pathway genes FAS and FASL and risk of esophageal squamous-cell carcinoma among the Chinese (1). Krippl et al. now extend the results to breast cancer, showing a similar association between the FAS –1377G>A polymorphism and risk of the cancer among Caucasians. However, . . .
