Abstract excerpt
The polymorphic genes PTGS1 and PTGS2 encode cyclooxygenases COX-1 and COX-2, respectively. Overexpression of these cyclooxygenases is linked to inflammation and neoplasms. This study investigated the potential association between the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) -842A>G (rs10306114) of the PTGS1 gene and SNP-765G>C (rs20417) of the PTGS2 gene with prostate cancer (PCa) and benign prostate hyperplasia...
