Expression quantities of CASP2, CASP8, BCL2, HULC and PVT1 genes in blood of cases versus controls. Expression of CASP2, CASP8, BCL2, HULC and PVT1 genes was calculated using Cq and PCR efficiency. These values were first log-transformed. Mean value of gene expression was compared between two groups using t-test. P values < 0.05 were considered as significant (F: female, M: male)
