Abstract excerpt
SMAD2 is a critical signal transducer molecule in the TGFβ- SMAD pathway which is also known for its tumor suppressor role. Genetic variations in SMAD2 render cells insensitive to its anti-proliferative signals leading to tumor formation. In this study, we demonstrate the impact of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of SMAD2 (rs4940086 and rs8085335) on cervical cancer risk development in Bangladeshi...
