Abstract excerpt
p21 (Waf1/Cip1) is a downstream target of p53. We evaluated the association between p21 polymorphism (codon 31), p53 polymorphism (codon 72) and their corresponding in vivo mRNA expression. In this study, p21 and p53 genetic polymorphisms (using standard PCR-RFLP techniques) and p21 and p53 gene expressions (using a radiolabelled ribonuclease protection assay (RPA) technique) were evaluated in the peripheral...
