A case-control gene association study, as a part of Retina 4 project, was designed. rs2279115 and rs4645878 polymorphisms were analysed in 555 samples from patients with RRD (134 with PVR secondary to surgery).
This is the first study evaluating the potential relationship between BCL2 and BAX gene polymorphisms and RRD in a Greek population, showing a significant association between BAX rs4645878 polymorphism and RRD susceptibility.
The aim of this study was to investigate whether polymorphisms of - 938C/A and Thr43Ala in the BCL-2 gene and G - 248A in the BAX gene are associated with the risk of developing non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL).
This study investigated the association of BCL2-938C>A(rs2279115) and BAX-248G>A(rs4645878) promoter region SNPs and the clinical responses and outcomes of 235 non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients treated with platinum-based chemotherapy.
The V122A mutant was able to re-activate transactivation of various p53 tumor mutants and retained growth inhibition when co-expressed with dominant-negative tumor mutations.
