Analysis in pharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma showed that carriers of GG genotype in the SNP ATG2B rs3759601 had an increased risk to develop this tumour, both in the codominant and the recessive model, p = 0.013 OR = 2.493 (1.212–5.129) (Table 3). Here, ATG2B is linked to pharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma.
