Abstract excerpt
CCND1 mRNA is alternatively spliced to produce 2 transcripts, and the splicing pattern may be modulated by a frequent A870G single-nucleotide polymorphism within the conserved splice donor site of exon 4. Several studies have suggested a significant association between the CCND1 genotype and onset or progression of various cancers. To investigate the correlation of the polymorphism with genetic susceptibility to...
