Abstract excerpt
The p53 pathway plays a critical role in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). The association between the single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNPs) within the p53 gene (R72P) and its downstream target/regulators, BAX (G125A) and MDM2 (SNP309), and clinical parameters/prognostic markers was investigated in 83 CLL patients. Although the p53 R72P SNPs and MDM2 SNP309 did not associate with any of the parameters studied,...
