## Abstract Matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)‐1 is associated with tumor cell invasion and metastasis, and its promoter polymorphism has been shown to influence the transcriptional level. Our study explored the association between this polymorphism and renal cell carcinoma in a Japanese population. DN
## Abstract Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) play an important role in several steps of cancer development. A single guanine insertion polymorphism (2G) in the __MMP1__ promoter sequence at −1,607 creates an Ets binding site and thus results in enhancing transcriptional activity. This study aimed t
