Recently, Zecevic et al. (1) reported an association between the size of the CA-repeat sequence residing in the 5' untranslated promoter region upstream of the start site of the IGF-1 gene and age of disease onset in 121 hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer patients who harbored germline mutations in the mismatch repair (MMR) genes hMLH1 or hMSH2 (1). In their study, an association between the length of the polymorphism . . . [Full Text of this Article]
