M., Centeno-Flores, M., Maciel-Gutiérrez, V., Cabrales, E., and Gutierrez-Angulo, M., RUNX3 gene polymorphisms and haplotypes in Mexican patients with colorectal cancer, vol. 14, pp. 15505-15510, 2015.

We analyzed a possible association between RUNX3 gene polymorphisms and haplotypes in Mexican patients with colorectal cancer (CRC). Genomic DNA samples were obtained from the peripheral blood of 176 Mexican patients with CRC at diagnosis and from 195 individuals that formed the control group. The polymorphisms were detected by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism. Association was estimated by odds ratio (OR). The haplotypes and linkage disequilibrium were established using the Arlequin v3.5 software.
