Abstract excerpt
We investigated the association of MMP-9 rs1056628 and rs17576 polymorphisms with breast cancer (BC) relapse in a cohort of prospectively observed BC patients. The polymorphisms were genotyped in 200 BC subjects with(case) and without(control) relapse by Tetra-primer Amplification Refractory Mutation System-Polymerase Chain Reaction (T-ARMS-PCR) method. A significant association was found between the rs1056628C...
