Abstract excerpt
The transcription factor p53 and its negative regulator MDM2 are pivotal in normal and cancer cells biology. Recently, a functional single-nucleotide polymorphism in the promoter region of MDM2 (MDM2 SNP309), alone or in combination with TP53 R72P, was shown to be associated with the risk, prognosis, age at onset, molecular markers, and response to chemotherapy of various cancers. This SNP has never been...
