Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Cyclooxygenase-2 (PTGS2) overexpression has been implicated in various cancers. We aimed to evaluate the role of PTGS2 -1195G>A [reference sequence (rs) 689466], -765G>C (rs20417) and +8473T>C (rs5275) polymorphisms in conferring interindividual susceptibility to gallbladder cancer. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The study included 167 gallbladder cancer cases and 184 controls. Genotyping was done by...
