Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: This replication study aimed to evaluate an association between caries experience and polymorphisms in DEFB1 and miRNA202 in two different Brazilian groups. DESIGN: The population consisted in 312 Brazilian children. Genomic DNA for was extracted from buccal cells isolated from saliva. The genotyping analysis of the polymorphisms in DEFB1 and miRNA202 was performed by real-time polymerase chain...
