Association of platelet glycoprotein Ia polymorphism with minor increase of risk for oral cancer
In light to association of increased platelet glycoprotein Ia ( GPIa) expression with tumor invasion and metastasis in several types of cancer, we investigated the possible contribution of a common polymorphism (C 807/T 807), affecting the GPIa gene expression, in the development of oral cancer.

Zusammenfassung: | In light to association of increased platelet glycoprotein Ia (
GPIa) expression with tumor invasion and metastasis in several types of cancer, we investigated the possible contribution of a common polymorphism (C
807/T
807), affecting the
GPIa gene expression, in the development of oral cancer.
DNA samples of 110 patients with oral cancer and 114 healthy controls were examined by allele-specific polymerase chain reaction followed by electrophoretic analysis.
The mutant T
807 allele homozygotes were significantly increased in the group of patients compared to the control group (
