Myeloperoxidase (<i>MPO</i>) promoter SNPs rs2243828 (-764T>C) and rs2333227 (G-463A) program malignant phenotypes by regulating <i>MPO</i> transcriptional activity. In this study, we enrolled a total of 1,175 controls and 1,078 patients with colorectal cancer with comprehensive clinical and survival information to assess whether these SNPs could affect the susceptibility and development of colorectal cancer. The <i>MPO</i> rs2333227 TT genotype significantly increased the risk of colorectal can ...[more]
