    Abstract:
    BCL-2 (B-cell leukemia/lymphoma 2) gene has been demonstrated to be associated with breast cancer development and a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP; -938C > A) has been identified recently. To investigate whether this polymorphism functions as a modifier of breast cancer development, we analyzed the distribution of genotype frequency, as well as the association of genotype with clinicopathological characteristics. Furthermore, we also studied the effects of this SNP on Bcl-2 expression in vitro.
