Abstract excerpt
The tumor suppressor P53 and its negative regulator mouse double minute 2 (MDM2) play crucial roles in carcinogenesis. Previous case-control studies also revealed that P53 72Arg>Pro and MDM2 309T>G polymorphisms contribute to the risk of common cancers. However, the relationship between these two functional polymorphisms and adult acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) susceptibility has not been explored. In this...
