Correlation between MDR1 polymorphisms and increased lymphoid infiltration in tumours

ExonGenotype (polymorphism)Amino acid changeNo (%) of tumours with specific genotype (polymorphism)/No of tumours analysedNo (%) of tumours with specific genotype (polymorphism) and lymphoid infiltrationp*
NS=not significant.
*Using the χ2 test, the proportions of tumours with lymphoid infiltration were compared among different alleles within the same locus (exon).
