Abstract excerpt
The role of 17β-estradiol (E2) in the development of cervical tumor (CT) has been demonstrated. 17β Hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 (HSD17B1) converts estrone (E1) into E2. We aimed to study the distribution of the HSD17B1937 A > G (rs605059) single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in women (n = 383) with CT and controls (n = 401) from the Polish population. The p-trend value evaluated for HSD17B1 rs605059 was...
