Abstract excerpt
The mouse double minute 2 (MDM2) gene encodes a negative regulator for p53, and the polymorphism SNP285 in the promoter region of MDM2 gene has been implicated in cancer risk, but individual published studies had inconclusive results. Therefore, we performed this meta-analysis to obtain a more precise estimation between MDM2 SNP285 polymorphism and risk of cancer. A systematic literature search was performed...
