It is widely accepted that pathogenesis of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is related to the interplay between specific environmental exposure and inherited background. Major role of some members of the ATP-binding cassette (ABC) family of membrane transporters including MDR1 (ABCB1, P-

Polymorphisms have been identified in several DNA repair genes. These polymorphisms may effect DNA repair capacity and modulate cancer susceptibility. In this study, we aimed to determine the four polymorphisms in two DNA repair genes, xeroderma pigmentosum complementation group D (XPD) and X-ray re
The aim of this study is to determine whether the polymorphisms of the MDR1 gene are associated with the development of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). The MDR1 gene polymorphisms, -2352 G>A, -934A>G, -692T>C (5' regulatory region) and 3435C>T (exon 26), were examined in 157 ALL patien
