Abstract excerpt
Accumulating evidence indicates that polymorphisms in folate pathway genes play a role in response to methotrexate (MTX) treatment in various diseases. This study explored the influence of these genetic polymorphisms on treatment outcome in pediatric osteosarcoma. Blood and tissue samples from 48 osteosarcoma patients were obtained, and the following polymorphisms were analyzed; SLC19A1 80G>A, DHFR 829C>T, MTHFR...
