Evaluation of rs3102735 and rs2073617 Osteoprotegerin Gene Polymorphisms and the Risk of Childhood Acute lymphoblastic Leukemia in Zahedan Southeast Iran

Introduction: Osteoprotegerin (OPG), a soluble decoy receptor secreted by osteoblasts, binds RANK-L, preventing stimulation of osteoclastogenesis. In the present study we aimed to investigate the impact of OPG variants and susceptibility to childhood acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL) in a sample of I...
