Abstract excerpt

Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are a family of enzymes that degrade extracellular matrix components and are involved in the development and progression of cancer. Lung cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in Lebanon. This study was undertaken to investigate the association between -1171(5A>6A) polymorphism in the promoter of MMP3 gene and the susceptibility to lung cancer in a Lebanese population. The...
