摘要: Abstract This chapter introduces the genetics and genomics of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). We introduce, in brief, findings leading to current state knowledge what we know about molecular genetic basis NPC prior new advances next-generation sequencing, which have allowed a more global view impact variations, epigenetic regulation, cell signaling pathways that contribute development. Discussions on germline predisposition for include MST1R, HLA, telomere, DNA repair studies, subjects appear play important roles inherited NPC. Landscape methylome, genome, transcriptome sequencing studies identified genes aberrations, providing insights into These all indicate complex multifactorial nature
