Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: In Caucasians, the MDM2 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) 285 G>C (rs117039649) neutralizes the effect of 309 T>G (rs2279744), which increases MDM2 expression and impairs the p53 pathway. In this study, we examined the distribution of these two SNPs in Polish women with squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) (n = 379), adenocarcinoma (n = 59) and other cervical tumor types (n = 18). METHODS:...
