A hundred HIV-infected women were examined for HPV detection and its genotypes, as well as the frequencies of the SNPs Arg72Pro and SNP309 and their associations with CC risk factors.
Subgroup analysis by ethnicity and cancer type (cervical, ovarian, breast, and endometrial) also showed a positive relationship between rs2279744 polymorphism and gynecological cancer risk in Caucasian; and there was also a notable association between rs2279744 polymorphism and cervical cancer.
The aim of the present study was to analyze the association of p53 codon72 (arginine/proline) polymorphism (rs1042522) and Murine Double Minute 2 (MDM2) SNP309 T/G (rs2279744) with the advancement of cervical cancer by using polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism method followed by direct sequencing.
