Polymorphic variability in the exon 19 of the RB1 gene and its flanking intronic sequences in HPV16-associated precancerous lesions in the Greek population.

CONCLUSIONS: The A153104G nucleotide polymorphism did not emerge as a potential biomarker for the development of precancerous lesions in the Greek patients, while the accumulation of sequence variations in RB1 gene might influence patients' susceptibility towards the progression of cervical neoplasia.
