An Assessment of MT1A (rs11076161), MT2A (rs28366003) and MT1L (rs10636) Gene Polymorphisms and MT2 Concentration in Women with Endometrial Pathologies
Abstract:Several studies have indicated a relationship between metallothionein (MT) polymorphisms and the development of different pathologies, including neoplastic diseases. However, no studies thus far have been conducted on the influence of MT polymorphisms and the development of endometrial lesions, including endometrial cancer. This study included 140 patients with normal endometrial tissue, endometrial polyps, uterine myomas and endometrial cancer. The tissue MT2 concentration was determined using the ELISA metho… Show more
