Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: The link between the systemic vasculature system and tumor biology is here investigated by studying the contribution of CβS (844ins68), MTHFR (677C > T), NOS3 (4a/4b), CYBA (C242T), and ACE1 (I/D) genes to leiomyoma onset, uterus and leiomyoma volumes. METHODS: DNA samples from 130 women with leiomyomas and 527 from healthy women were genotyped by PCR or PCR-RFLP. Qui-square (χ2) or Fisher's exact test...
