BARD1 and neuroblastoma: Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) or other gene mutations, such as rare mutations in the ALK gene at locus 2p23 for familial neuroblastoma, common SNPs in cancer susceptibility candidate 15 (CASC15) and neuroblastoma-associated transcript 1 (NBAT1) at 6p22 were found to be involved in tumor initiation of neuroblastoma, and the bos taurus BRCA1 associated RING domain 1 (BARD1) gene at 2q35, IL3, cholesterol-lowering factor (CFL), and lens intrinsic membrane (LIM) domain only 1 (LMO1) were found to be related to the risk of sporadic neuroblastoma.
