Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The interaction between p53 and human double minute 2 (HDM2) plays an important role in apoptosis; therefore, functional polymorphisms in these genes might have adverse effects in early pregnancy. In this study, we investigated whether p53 codon 72 and HDM2 promoter (SNP309) polymorphisms were associated with the development of missed abortion. METHODS: Women with missed abortions (n= 60) and healthy...
