PPP1R13L and lung carcinoma: This Northeastern-Chinese case–control study involving 627 cases and 633 controls evaluated the role of three haplotype-tagging single nucleotide polymorphisms (htSNP) (rs1143633, rs3136558 and rs1143630) representing 95% of the common haplotype diversity across the IL1B gene and assessed interactions with IL1B, PPP1R13L, POLR1G and smoking duration in relation to lung cancer risk.
