Association of p73 gene G4C14-A4T14 polymorphism and MDM2 gene SNP309 with non-small cell lung cancer risk in a Chinese population.

ABSTRACT: The present study aimed to investigate the association of p73 G4C14-A4T14 polymorphism and murine double minute 2 (MDM2) 309 T/G single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with the risk of developing non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in Sothern China. The p73 and MDM2 genotypes of peripheral blood DNA from 186 patients with NSCLC and 196 normal controls were detected by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) with confronting two-pair primers (CTPP) and high resolution melting (HRM), respectively. The results of genotyping were consistent with those of direct sequencing. The p73 AT/AT [odds ratio (OR)=0.46; 95% confidence interval (CI)=0.22-0.97] and MDM2 TT (OR=0.48; 95% CI=0.26-0.86) genotypes were associated with a decreased risk of developing NSCLC compared with that of the p73 GC/GC and MDM2 GG
