    Abstract:
    Polymorphism of TP53 Arg72Pro is associated with many different cancers[1-4]. Few studies have investigated its role in the susceptibility to non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) [5,6]. To examine the association between this polymorphism and NHL risk, we conducted a Korean large-scale, population-based case-control study (945 cases and 1,700 controls). The TP53 72CC genotype was associated with increased risk of NHL (P 5 0.04) and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (P 5 0.04). Our findings provide evidence that the TP53 Arg72Pro is associated with an increased risk of NHL in Korea.
