Methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase gene polymorphisms and risk of acute lymphoblastic leukemia in children

Abstract

The prevalence of 'T' allele for 677 MTHFR polymorphism was low in the population studied. There was no association between MTHFR 677 C-->T and 1298 A-->C gene polymorphisms and risk of ALL, which may be due to the small sample size.
