## 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
