Bladder Cancer Risk Associated with Genotypic Polymorphism of the Matrix Metalloproteinase-1 and 7 in North Indian Population
2010-01-01
Abstract excerpt
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) contribute to tumor invasion and microenvironment, hence are associated with bladder cancer risk. We therefore, tested whether polymorphisms in MMP genes modify the risk of bladder cancer (BC) and whether smoke exposure modifies this risk. Genotyping was performed in 200 BC patients and 200 controls by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP). M...
