title: Distribution of CCND1 A870G polymorphism in patients with advanced uterine cervical carcinoma.
abstract: We examined the distribution of the CCND1 A870G (rs9344) polymorphic variant in patients with cervical cancer (n = 129) and healthy individuals (n = 288) in a sample of a Polish cohort. We showed that patients with advanced cervical cancer bearing the CCND1 A/A and A/G genotypes displayed a 1.811-fold increased risk of cervical cancer (95% CI = 1.150-2.852, p = 0.0098). We also found a significantly higher frequency of the CCND1 870A allele in patients with cancer than in controls, p = 0.0116. Our investigation confirmed that the CCND1 870A gene variant may be a genetic risk factor in the incidence of advanced cervical cancer.
