Abstract excerpt
A functional rs4245739 A>C single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) locating in the MDM43'-untranslated (3'-UTR) region creates a miR-191-5p or miR-887-3p targeting sites. This change results in decreased expression of oncogene MDM4. Therefore, we examined the association between this SNP and small cell lung cancer (SCLC) risk as well as its regulatory function in SCLC cells. Genotypes were determined in two...
