Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: To study whether the promoter polymorphism (C-509T) affects transforming growth factor β1 gene (TGFB1) expression, protein secretion, and/or cellular radiosensitivity for both human lymphocytes and fibroblasts. METHODS AND MATERIALS: Experiments were performed with lymphocytes taken either from 124 breast cancer patients or 59 pairs of normal monozygotic twins. We used 15 normal human primary fibroblast...
