The NQO1 C(609)T germline polymorphism resulting in a lowering of enzyme activity may confer susceptibility to MDS. To assess this association, we performed a case-control study including 330 Greek patients with de novo MDS and 416 healthy donors, using a Real-Time PCR genotyping method. Focusing on cytogenetic aberrations most commonly found in MDS, we retrospectively genotyped 566 MDS/AML patients carrying...
