Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to analyze the frequencies of genotypes and alleles of Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP) LEP-R c.668A>G (p.Gln223Arg, rs1137101) of leptin receptor gene and to assess the influence this DNA marker has on endometrial cancer (EC) with respect to total body fat content. METHODS: The study comprised 120 patients treated for endometrial cancer and 90 controls treated for...
