Description
The objective of the present study was to evaluate whether germline methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) C677T and A1298C polymorphisms as well as polymorphisms in the thymidylate synthase gene promoter, namely the variable number tandem repeat polymorphism (TS VNTR) and the intrarepeat G to C single nucleotide polymorphism (TS SNP), are predictive markers of tumor regression in rectal cancer patients following preoperative chemoradiotherapy.
