Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The aim of the study was to investigate any associations between benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH) and single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the VDR gene (FokI, BsmI, ApaI and TaqαI loci) and the CYP17 gene (MspA1I locus), as well as TA repeat polymorphism in SRD5A2 gene among Lebanese men. MATERIALS AND METHODS: DNA extracted from blood of 68 subjects with confirmed BPH and 79 age-matched...
