Polymorphism -433 C>T of the Osteopontin Gene is Associated with the Susceptibility to Develop Gliomas and their Prognosis in a Chinese Cohort

Aim: To investigate role of the Osteopontin (OPN) genetic polymorphisms in the susceptibility to gliomas and their prognosis. Methods: A total of 248 Chinese glioma patients and 281 age and sex matched healthy controls were recruited. The genetic polymorphisms at three loci, namely, -156 GG>G, -4...
