Abstract excerpt
p53 is the most frequently mutated gene in all forms of human cancer. It responds to diverse stresses including UVR-induced DNA damage and regulates many downstream genes to initiate cell-cycle arrest, DNA repair or apoptosis. p53 gene variants at codon 11, Pro47Ser and codon 248 (exon 7) were evaluated for bladder cancer (BC) risk in North Indians. In the present study, the above encoding regions in p53 genes...
