Polymorphic variations may affect the rate of gene transcription, the stability of the mRNA, or the quantity and activity of the resulting protein. In this study we evaluated the association between the interleukin-1B C-31T, catechol-O-methyltransferase Val158Met, and thymidylate synthase (TS) 1494d

## Abstract Thymidylate synthase (TS) is the primary target of 5‐fluorouracil (5‐FU). A VNTR polymorphism in the TS promoter region is associated with the efficacy of 5‐FU‐based chemotherapy in colorectal cancer. A common G>C SNP at the 12th nucleotide of the second repeat in the TS\*3 alleles has
