## Abstract Both p53 tumor suppressor and murine double minute 2 (MDM2) oncoprotein are crucial in carcinogenesis. We hypothesized that __MDM2__ promoter single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) SNP309 Tβ>βG, A2164G, and __p53__ codon 72 are associated with risk and age at onset of squamous cell carc
Differences in genetic susceptibility to tobacco-induced carcinogenesis appear to modulate an individual's risk of squamous-cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN). Risk for SCCHN may be associated with the null alleles of the carcinogen-metabolizing genes glutathione-S-transferase (GST) T1 and
