## Abstract MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have been reported to play a key role in oncogenesis and, recently, studies have examined the role miRNAs might play in the risk of premalignant lesions. To our knowledge, no study has investigated the association between miRNA polymorphisms and risk of oral premalign

## Abstract ## Objective To evaluate the relationship between polymorphisms in the gene coding for mannoseβbinding lectin (MBL) and the occurrence of coronary artery lesions (CALs) among different age groups of patients with Kawasaki disease. ## Methods The frequencies of the genotypes, defined
## Communicated by Stephen Chanock Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) play important roles in cancer initiation and development. Several polymorphisms in the promoters of a number of MMP genes, which can affect the respective MMP production in an allele-specific manner, have been well characterized.
## Abstract The __HPC2__/__ELAC2__ gene may be associated with hereditary/familial prostate cancer (PCa). Two common missense variants (Ser217Leu and Ala541Thr) have been reported in the gene. We performed mutational, allelotyping and expression analyses and a molecular epidemiological study to cla
## Abstract Polymorphisms at loci controlling cellular processes such as cell cycle, DNA repair, and apoptosis may modulate the risk of cancer. We examined the association of two linked polymorphisms (G4C14βA4T14) at __p73__ and one polymorphism (309Gβ>βT) at __MDM2__ promoter with the risk of leuk
