The p21 codon 31*C- and DRD2 codon 313*T-related genotypes/alleles, but not XRCC1 codon 399, hOGG1 codon 326, and DRD1-48 polymorphisms, are correlated with the presence of leiomyoma.

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To investigate whether the gene polymorphisms for p21, X-ray repair cross-complementing group 1 (XRCC1), human 8-oxoguanine glycosylase 1 (hOGG1), and dopamine D1 and D2 receptors (DRD1, -2) are associated with leiomyoma susceptibility. DESIGN: Prospective study. SETTING: Departments of gynecology and genetics in a medical center. PATIENT(S): Women were divided into two groups: leiomyoma (n = 120) and...
