Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the impact of MTHFR C677T polymorphism on Bcl-2 gene promoter CpG island (CGI) methylation and Bcl-2 protein expression. MATERIAL AND METHODS: MTHFR polymorphisms of 86 sporadic colorectal cancer (CRC) patients and 100 healthy volunteers were analyzed by PCR-based restriction fragment length polymorphism, and Bcl-2 promoter CGI methylation in 86 CRC tissues and 86 paired nonneoplastic...
