Polymorphism of the p53 gene within the codon 72 in lung cancer patients.

Abstract excerpt

We tested the codon 72 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) of the tumor suppressor gene p53 for association with lung cancer. In our hospital-based case-control study, 168 lung cancer patients (134 males and 34 females) and 148 controls without malignant diseases were recruited. The genotype characteristics were determined by PCR-based RFLP method using DNA extracted from peripheral blood. Only in lung cancer...
