TL;DR: Using serologic and molecular methods, nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients were typed for HLA class I and class II and were compared to 100 unrelated normal Tunisians, showing that the antigen frequency of HLA-B13 and allelic frequencies of DRB1*03, DRB 1*15 were significantly higher in the NPC patients than in the control group.

TL;DR: Another source of evidence for the reproductive isolation of the two groups was revealed through the analysis of haplotype matching (both mtDNA and Y‐chromosome), showing that matching probabilities between them is of the same order of magnitude of that observed when contrasting samples from different European countries.

TL;DR: It is illustrated that RhoC overexpression and tumor emboli are more frequent in IBC relative to non-IBC from Egypt and Tunisia and future studies should focus on relating epidemiologic factors and clinical pictures to molecular features of IBC in these and other populations.

TL;DR: Comparison of allele and haplotype distribution between patients and 70 female control subjects reveals a negative association between HLA-DRB1*07-DQB1*02 and the incidence of breast cancer in the Tunisian population.
