Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Murine double-minute 2 homologue (MDM2) is a key negative regulator of p53. Polymorphisms in the promoter region were shown to alter the gene activity and/or function, suggesting a possible role in carcinogenesis. OBJECTIVE AND METHOD: The current study aims to investigate the association of SNP309 and del1518 polymorphisms as well as their haplotypes in MDM2 with the risk of esophageal squamous cell...
