Abstract excerpt
A single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP309) of MDM2 causes elevated MDM2 levels and an attenuation of p53 function. The aim of the present study was to examine the clinical relevance of the MDM2 SNP309 in ovarian cancer.MDM2 SNP309 genotype was analyzed in 198 patients with primary ovarian cancer. MDM2 expression was investigated using immunohistochemistry. A...
