Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: To investigate the association between toll-like receptor 9 (TLR9) single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and human papillomavirus (HPV) infection among Chinese Han women with cervical cancer. METHODS: TLR9 -1486 and 2848 SNPs were investigated in patients with cervical cancer and controls using polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-restriction fragment length polymorphism. HPV16 E6 and E7 infections were...
