Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: Recent studies have demonstrated an association between vitamin D receptor (VDR) genotype and prostate cancer. Currently, there is a scarcity of data regarding the association of VDR genotype with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). The purpose of this study was to investigate the TaqI VDR polymorphism in Japanese prostate cancer patients, Japanese BPH patients and Japanese controls in order to...
