    (Termedia Publishing, 2015) Ezzeldin, Nada; El-Lebedy, Dalia; Darwish, Amira; El-Bastawissy, Ahmed; Shalaby, Alaa Eldin
    Complement factor H (CFH) has been known to inhibit the complement pathway and to contribute to tumour growth by suppressing the anti-tumour cell mediated response in cell lines from several malignancies. We examined the association of Try402His single nucleotide polymorphism in CFH gene with lung cancer and the interaction with cigarette smoking.
