Abstract excerpt
This study was undertaken to examine whether predisposition to human papillomavirus (HPV)16/18-related cervical cancer (CaCx) because of p53 proline homozygosity (Pro72Pro) among Indian women was mediated singly or jointly with immunogenetic risk factors such as HLA-B*07 or homozygosity of HLA-DQB1*03. Molecular detection of all three genetic factors was performed by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment...
