Abstract excerpt
p53 is a major orchestrator of cellular response to a broad array of stress types by regulating apoptosis, cell cycle arrest, etc. A few polymorphic sites, one at codon72 of exon4, intron3 16bpdel/ins, intron6G>A have been studied with regard to Bladder cancer (BC) risk in North Indians. Genotypes were assessed in hospital-based case-control study comprising of 200BC cases, 265healthy controls. After extraction...
