Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To study the relationship between two potential functional polymorphisms in exon 2 of the p73 gene and the susceptibility of lung cancer. METHODS: Genotypes were determined by polymerase chain reaction-single stand conformation polymorphism (PCR-SSCP) method in 425 histologically-confirmed lung cancer cases and 588 cancer-free controls, frequency-matched by age and sex. RESULTS: The two polymorphisms...
